Safe Computing in the
Unsafe Age of Hackers &
Data Breaches
Computer Security for the Home Use
We’ve all heard on the news about huge
security breaches at major companies,
and they occur so frequently that this
publication can’t keep up! Items such as
“Ransomware” strike individuals every
day. There’s no reason to be paranoid,
but there are a LOT of good reasons to be
prepared. This class, taught by a security
engineering expert, is designed to help the
home user identify the different risks and
implement best practices to prepare and
protect oneself and family. Topics covered
include passwords, home networking,
patching, viruses and malware, the dos and
don’ts of surfing the Internet in various
locations, mobile computing, email, the
cloud, and data protection.

Maintaining Electronic
Privacy in the Modern Age
Which organization do you believe most
actively
monitors you: the NSA or Google?
The answer might surprise you. Privacy,
especially our online or electronic privacy,
is a hot button topic in the news, for
lawmakers, and should be for you too.
Electronic or digital privacy is also distinctly
different from computer security. This
class, an excellent complement to the
“Safe Computing” class taught by the
same instructor, supplies the student with
a greater understanding of what happens
with private data, provides options on
tools and methods to help protect privacy
information, and is meant to stir thought
and conversation surrounding a very
important topic.
