Cyber-safety in the Digital Age

Wednesday, October 19th, at 7:00 p.m.

Presented by Bob Gostischa, Avast, East-Central Ohio Technology Users Club, & APCUG Speaker’s Bureau

The way we live, work, and play has changed dramatically over the course of the past half-century.

The 9-5 economics of years past have been replaced with globally integrated 24/7 service offerings.

Consumers in the digital age have access to a host of services and products that could have previously been considered available only in the realms of science fiction.

This presentation points out the dangers and offers suggestions that will aid in keeping you secure in this digital era. Using the right programs and apps can help keep you safe and secure as well as shrink your digital footprint. Using free programs and apps whenever possible to accomplish this goal is an added bonus and this presentation includes information on many recommended free programs. Join presenter Bob Gostischa as he guides you in the right direction to enhance your Cyber-safety in the digital age.
