Joseph Steinberg, author of "CyberSecurity for Dummies,” and a Columbia University lecturer on the subject, will be presenting an opportunity for library members to hear a highly informative talk about the most essential things you need to know about cybersecurity.
We all know that we face increased threats from costly hacker attacks and data breaches – unfortunately, however, much of what we have been taught about how to protect ourselves is simply wrong.
In this session, Steinberg will show you how you can improve your odds of staying cybersecure, no matter your level of technological sophistication. He will also discuss some of the newer ways that cybercriminals are using Artificial Intelligence for illicit purposes -- and what that means for you.
In addition, Steinberg will discuss recent events and explore how various government attempts to protect consumers have proven counterproductive – worsening our collective cybersecurity posture instead of improving it – and how governments can better keep us safe from cybercriminals.
Please join us to learn how to protect ourselves better against cybercriminals…
