Ep. 38: I Always Feel Like Somebody's Watching me

We admit that we are not the most tech savvy of podcasts. But, that does not stop us from wanting to learn more about technology and how to better use it (or fear it - in some cases). On this episode we are joined by our first out of town guest, Joe Murdock, who is a Cyber Security Instructor in the Business School at the University of Colorado Denver. He was in town to attend a couple conferences including the world famous DefCon hacker convention that takes place in Las Vegas each year. Joe gives us a few reasons to be worried about technology, but also provides some great strategies to help us stay safe. Additionally, he provides some great resources for members of our community who want to pursue further education in the Cyber Security field.To find out more about how to protect yourself or to pursue further education in Cyber Security check out:Homeland Security Safe Computing Tipshttps://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/tipsUS Cyber Patriot for middle and high school studentshttps://www.uscyberpatriot.org/Have I been pwned Data Breach Checkhttps://haveibeenpwned.com/College of Southern Nevada Cyber Centerhttps://www.csn.edu/cybercenterUNLV Cyber Centerhttps://www.unlv.edu/program/cybersecurityTo learn more about what happens at DefCon check out these safe sites:https://www.huffpost.com/topic/defconhttps://www.wired.com/tag/defcon/https://www.reddit.com/r/defcon/The Great Hack movie can be found on NetflixWe want to hear from you!
