Learn to better protect yourself from online attacks by cleaning up your digital footprint. In this interactive workshop, we will ‘think like doxers’ to discover what private information about us is available online and what we can do to remove it or reduce its visibility. We’ll talk about data brokers, data breaches, password hygiene and more. Participants will leave with their own digital safety action plan and tools for sharing this guidance with their colleagues and unit members. Bring your laptop and/or phone to follow along.
