Fridays @ the Corridor: Is your data secure?
Bots. Zombie networks. Bad guys looking for vulnerable machines. Even bad social networking and email insecurity can make it easier for others to go online as you and spread infections or social engineering attacks designed to steal data or money.
At the July Fridays @ the Corridor, Dominick Inglese of Dominick Designs defines the basics of cybersecurity and guides you through steps to increase your online browsing safety awareness and reduce your vulnerability to online attacks in an age when everyone and everything is connected to everyone and everything else.
This event will be held at 8:30 a.m. Friday, July 14.
Attendance is limited to 25 guests, with priority seating for Digital Corridor members.
The nonmember fee is $10 and can be paid by cash or check at the door.
