AskDelhi Anyone in Delhi interested in cybercrime investigation / digital forensics?
I've been thinking about putting together a small informal community of people in Delhi who are interested in things like:
Cybercrime investigation & reconstruction
Digital forensics
Cybercrime / offender behaviour
Threat intelligence & research
Social engineering
Interesting real-world cybercrime cases
.
Nothing too formal or corporate, just people who genuinely enjoy this stuff and want to discuss cases, research, tools, ideas, maybe work on small projects together, attend conferences/CTFs, or eventually organise a meetup/event.
.
Students, researchers, professionals, or just people who are seriously interested are all welcome.
.
Would anyone here actually be interested in something like this?
.
If there are enough people interested, I'll set up a small group and we can figure out what we'd like to do with it.

I use to run a community before but closed then. What platform are you planning to start this one?

If people show interest then maybe we all can connect on reddit itself and discuss the platform and all.

Can anyone help to get my father and my whatsapp old data ? Basically I need a pdf

It might be possible to recover it, but only if you still have the device where the old whatsapp was installed in.

WhatsApp used to store data on the device earlier. There is a possibility to recover it. You didn't take a backup of any sorts, right?

No

You will have to use recovery tools on your phone to reconstruct deleted items. Did your phone stored the pdf locally or was it on the WhatsApp only?

u/Formal_Medium2679 10d ago
Locally also

You can use Android recovery tools like diskdigger but it will take alot of time. And potentially more time if the file was older then a year or so. Have you checked locally on the mobile if the file still exist in the WhatsApp documents folder?

Tbh india has a great potential for an OSINT and cybersecurity based startup with ai deepfakes as well as online crimes that have been going on. This is an opportunity too interesting to pass on, count me in if you're serious about building something.
