    ISECOM presents Smarter Safer Better!

    Our failure to figure out correctly who to trust, what is safe, and how we are secure is how we get manipulated, cheated, scammed, and stolen from all the time in so many ways. This doesn't just come from thieves and hackers but also people like advertisers, co-workers, journalists, politicians, leaders, and even our own loved ones. If you don't learn to see through it then you will always be poorer and at a greater disadvantage in work, school, and life. But it doesn't have to be this way. ISECOM, the non-profit, security research organization is rolling out a seminar series world-wide to help you learn the skills you need to defend yourself and your family at home, online, at work, and on the streets.

    WHEN AND WHERE?
    For only 3 weeks in October, Pete Herzog, security researcher, security analyst, and co-founder of ISECOM, will be kicking off the Insecurity Seminars in select states and provinces for organizations who want to sponsor them for public or private venues:

    USA: NY, CT, PA, NJ, DE, MD, VA, NC
    Canada: ON

    This is your only opportunity now to bring an internationally acclaimed security and trust expert on timely, sensitive, and highly critical topics to your organization, community center, school, or business.

    THE BAD PEOPLE PROJECT

    Introducing: http://www.badpeopleproject.org

    Security as it's taught to children is a mess. They get rules for everything, more than anyone should have to memorize, and the rules unfortunately hardly overlap from real world security to cybersecurity. We want to fix that and we need your help.

    The Bad People Project is a collaborative community where kids, without any coaching, draw what they think a bad person looks like. As we put up more pictures we will be able to improve our understanding of security for kids from a cultural and regional point of view. This is then used to create open and free classroom materials for kids to build a strong foundation in security while crossing cultural boundaries where kids learn about other kids security and safety concerns.

    ISECOM has a good track record in tackling difficult and abstract concepts to make a difference. We hope this will lead to making free materials for elementary schools to provide in class much like we did for Hacker Highschool. But we need to reach the first milestone before we can do anything else.

    We need you to talk to the parents of children you know, talk to schools, and talk to after-school clubs (an Italian Judo class for kids submitted 8 pictures) to get kids to draw what they think bad people look like. Please get involved in making this a security awareness project that encompasses security online and offline for kids. Translations of the pdf are also welcome!

    Thanks!


    HACKER HIGHSCHOOL

    www.hackerhighschool.org
    The principles of hacking should be taught in schools, said Pete Herzog. It is the principles they need to learn to avoid from being victims on the Internet.

    Herzog runs Hacker Highschool, a program to teach kids and teens security awareness and critical, Internet research skills. The program contains free security and privacy awareness teaching materials and back-end support for teachers of accredited elementary, junior high, and high schools. There are 12 workbooks, all available in Spanish and English. These are lessons that challenge teens to be as resourceful as hackers, including safe Internet use, web privacy, using the Internet for research, avoiding viruses and Trojans, legalities and ethics, and more.

    This program has been developed to complement existing student course work or as part of after-school and club activities. [ Read More ]

    HHS Teacher Certification Training

    If you are interested in teaching the Hacker Highschool program to kids or teens you really should consider being an HHS certified teacher. The HHST is a modern, professional certification which assures applicable knowledge, skills, ethics, approach, and responsibility for teaching minors.
