Demystifying cyber security technologies: Demystifying user (in)security online

25/1/2024

On Thursday, January 18, 2024, within the framework of EDIH DIGI-SI, this year’s first professional-educational seminar Demystification of user (in)security online was held, which was conducted by Assoc. dr. Lili Nemec Zlatolas and dr. Marko Kompara from the Laboratory for Data Technologies at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Informatics of the University of Maribor.

In the first part of the seminar, we took a close look at passwords, presented password managers and more advanced methods of authenticating and protecting access to our online accounts. In the second part, we focused on cyber attacks such as identity theft, various forms of fraud (e.g. phishing), harmful software and the like.

We regularly organize professional and educational seminars on the topic of demystifying modern technologies. You can follow them here.
