Digital Security: A practical workshop for media & knowledge workers
FREE to all!
As media workers, researchers, teachers and students, we are all digitally dependent. And no matter the nature of our work or who we are, our devices are more accessible than ever to people and institutions beyond our view.
From GPS to FB, emails to Google searches, our public and private activities are subject to monitoring, collection and cataloging by corporations and governments, making the digital public increasingly vulnerable.
But there are many ways we can help ourselves. Digital literacy with a view to digital security are essential first steps.
This workshop will help explain those vulnerabilities and offer some easy tips on how to protect your day-to-day digital communications.
