Day 1

--Originally published at #itecgda

We began the day with an explanation of what is the internet, what is a website.

The explanation fo what goes into the internet followed. Private information on Faceook is still on the internet, private mesages of any messaging app it’s still on the internet.

We had a guest speaker, Dave Cormier about the importance of online identity.. We had some questions to some of which I completely facepalmed.

The ones I remember were:

  • How we can protect our information against hackers.

Truth is you can’t. You completely depend on the companies security abilities to protect you. Security is a pretty much cat and mouse game. Vulnerabilities get patched and new ones are found. Think of the super hacks of Yahoo, Target, DNC (Democractic National Comitee). I could write a complete post about this so I’m going to skip to the next one.

 

Work in progress.
