The digital revolution has fundamentally reshaped our society. New technologies provide unlimited possibilities for sharing and receiving information. The control of our homes, our bank accounts and our personal information literally lie at our fingertips.
However convenient this may be, living in a digital society poses digital problems. Cybercrime, profiling and data breaches are real threats. But our risk sensors, that warn us about dangers in the analogue world, simply aren’t designed to spot and evaluate digital risks. A blind-spot closely mirrored by a lack of effective government regulation for the digital domain.
Helena Verhagen will teach you 10 easy steps to safeguard your privacy. After this training, you’ll know exactly what makes your data so valuable, the risks of sharing it, and most importantly: how you can protect the information you don’t want to share.
