Blair Baker “The Smart Phone Who Knew Too Much! And Other Perils of Mobile Media.”
Join us at True Food Kitchen in Fashion Valley with guest speaker Blair Baker
There is a new “syndrome” out there. It is called “CyberSecurity Fatigue.” Maybe you have it. Symptoms include: a soft glazing over of the eyes and thoughts of creating drinking games whenever you hear terms like “BYOD,” “Ransomware,” “phishing attack,” and “breach.” Severe cases include people sticking their fingers in their ears and crying “la-la-la” until that mean old security person, or newscaster, goes away, or tuning out and tuning into your favorite social media on your smart phone…but isn’t it what we are talking about…and you can’t “opt-out” of CyberSecurity….
What causes it? Is it serious? Is there a way for us mere mortals to understand what is real about our phones and what is hysteria? What do they want from my phone? I am not a Zuckerberg, why would anyone really be out to get me? Is there anything I can do to protect myself, my business, my kids without spending money?
Find all answers, and perhaps a chuckle or two, in this session.
