Security on the Net
Speaker:Karamoon; IT instructor and internet security specialist
The Internet, we are told, is a dark and dangerous place. It’s full of cyber terrorists, fraudsters, scammers and evil hackers, all of whom wish to do us harm. A staggering variety of products claims to be able to keep us safe and sound while we shop online, share digital photos with random strangers, store personal secrets on USB thumb drives, broadcast our exact location on the web…
The reality is that there are no easy ways to protect yourself when using the Internet, and most security products are utter junk. There are, however, fundamental security principles that can be applied to any situation. This talk details the fundamental principles of security and how they can be used in everyday life.
About the speaker
Karamoon has extensive knowledge and experience of computer security. He has worked as a penetration tester breaking into, and then securing, countless computer networks in the UK. He has also worked as an IT instructor, specializing in information security.
Directions to Wesley Center
From Shibuya Station, take Bus 1 (200 yen) to the first bus stop at Aoyama Chutobumae. From that bus stop, turn right and walk straight up the slight incline. (On the opposite side of the expressway, there is Monsoon Restaurant and Eneos Gas Station) Back to your side of the expressway, there is an open area (future road) and the Wesley Center has a low brick sign in front of the building. It is the 2nd building from the expressway.
From Omotesando Station, take exit B1 and turn left at Max Mara onto Koto-dori. Go straight past Starbucks, Poplar conveni on the left hand side of Koto-dori and cross over to the other side of the rode by the shoe store so you are by Hunting World, continue straight and take the next right and the Wesley Center has a low brick sign in front of the building.
