“There
are two kinds of people in America today: those who have experienced a
cyber-attack and know it, and those who have experienced a cyber-attack and
don't know it” –Frank Wolf
WHICH
ONE ARE YOU?
As the
world becomes increasingly interconnected through multiple cyber interfaces, the
importance of strong cybersecurity practices is of great importance in order to
deter and effectively minimize attacks. Globalization as enhanced through cyber
mediums such as facebook, periscope, twitter, and the use of the world wide web
helps to connect us with people, organizations, and regions whom we otherwise
would never connect with. This technological advancement has both positive and
negative consequences.
For
most, this interconnectivity helps us interact with others and learn about the
world in a meaningful way. However, for others, they exploit vulnerable
networks and employ malicious attacks with the intention to stealing personal
identities and research.
This presentation
will help you to identify contemporary threats to information within the United
States and when you are traveling abroad in order to help you develop a broad
understanding of the regulatory frameworks that have jurisdiction over
scientific research and its protection, and teach you specific behaviors that
help protect yourself from becoming a victim of a cybercrime.
