As the weeks go on, I hope to be able to point out things that we do on a daily basis in relationship to the threats it may pose to us. Not only that, but to also bring out more of an awareness to those who have not heard of such threats as a possibility.
As there are many ways for one with sinister intentions to be able to harm an unsuspecting individual. I hope that not only will we be more knowledgeable, but also more cautious when using the internet even if we are just simply blogging.
Hey Jonny,
ReplyDeleteMy first recommendation: does it matter if you go by an alias if your full name is on the blog itself? (So maybe update that to your alias, too?).
You know, I'd love a post on the problem that Java poses. My husband rants about that (as a techie) and NOVA requires Java use because it's required within Blackboard to operate software like Wimba or Collaborate. So while I would love to follow the tech community's advice on cyber security, my employer forces me to be less safe. That hopefully is an issue you'll discuss!
