On Friday, October 13th from 3-4:30pm, the Internet Governance Lab, in collaboration with the Freedom of the Press Foundation, the Center for Media and Social Impact, and the Washington, D.C. chapter of the Internet Society, will host a discussion providing practical steps students, faculty, and all members of the AU community can take to protect themselves from a variety of digital threats.

The event will take place in McKinley and is free and open to the public.

Facilitated by Harlo Holmes of Freedom of the Press, the event will address strategies for protecting data from hackers, how to spot and avoid phishing attempts, preventing corporate and state surveillance, and general best practices for securing users’ digital rights in what can feel like an ocean of constantly shifting threats.

We look forward to seeing you there.
