The world famous Bart Busschots will cover how to manage your own online safety using easy to learn and remember techniques. The internet is an amazing place, without it we’d have been utterly lost over the past few years. It lets us stay close to our loved ones far away, make the most amazing friends, learn the most fascinating things, and buy the most esoteric goodies we can think of. But it has a dark side, and and the only way to stay safe is to understand the threat — who’s out to get you, what do they want, and how are they trying to get it? The technical minutia change all the time, but who the baddies are and what motivates them changes surprisingly little. Believe it or not, each and every one of us has something of value to the baddies, so we all need some digital street-smarts to help us steer clear of trouble!
