The basics starts with understanding the goal of security. It sounds simple but the goal is to make sure whatever you build works as you intend...and only as you intend!
Back from vacation, I recap the show's structure and new channels as well as the plan around "the basics"
GMail in the classroom just like on your phone. The promise of G Suite for Education is enticing. A low-cost way for schools to provide collaboration tools to students and teachers. But what are the privacy implications of letting the search giant into our schools?
A friend highlighted a real issue: there isn't enough material about basic cybersecurity that's easily relatable.
Connecting with others is critical but it can also pose a risk. It's important not to "leak" information needlessly. This is a practice know as operational security. It's critically important...and often ignored.
3d printing holds a mountain of promise. While the technology is taking longer than generally expected to make an impact, the areas where it is having an impact are significant. While copyright and outdated thinking get in the way of this technology?
We're creating more and more data but despite advancements in data processing, we're still lacking easy to use tools to understand what's happening around us. What can we do to fix this?
No one wins all the time. Don't seek out failure but we shouldn't be afraid of sharing our failures so that others may learn.

Getting your first cybersecurity role can be difficult. Is part of the problem how organizations are hiring talent?
