The Security Education Companion is a resource for people teaching digital security to their friends and neighbors. Lesson Topics These lesson modules are centered around specific learning objectives, and are divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced lessons. Before jumping into using these modules, we recommend reading the articles from Security Education 101. Within each of these modules, we have suggested prerequisites, warmups, activities, talking points, graphic materials, anticipated Q/A, as well as accompanying guides from Surveillance Self-Defensefor tool configurations and installs. As you get more practice with digital security workshops, we encourage you to remix or repurpose these lessons how you see fit.

VeraCrypt ist ein neues Verschlüsselungsprogramm, das besser und sicherer sein will, als TrueCrypt.
VeraCrypt Mit VeraCrypt betritt eine neue Verschlüsselungs-Software den Markt, die verspricht vollkommen sicher zu sein. Sie setzt zwar auf dem laut den eigenen Machern unsicheren TrueCrypt auf, wurde aber an den entscheidenden Stellen verbessert und soll immun gegen Brute-Force-Attacken sein. Verschlüsseln Sie Ihre Daten um gegen Schnüffeleien seitens Regierungen, Privatpersonen oder Konzernen gewappnet zu sein.

A third of U.S. middle and high school students use mobile devices issued by their schools. Many others use their own devices for their schoolwork, using software such as the widely adopted Google Apps for Education. If you have children in school, chances are good that people and organizations you don’t know are collecting massive quantities of information about your children and using this information for purposes you know nothing about. We don’t know much about how children’s information is used, or by whom, or for what purpose Once data is collected and the company that collected it uses it for its stated purpose, there is little in law or policy that prevents the company from also using the information for other purposes, such as “product development.” It may also sell the information to others for their use or archive it for possible later use. Many bills bearing on student privacyhave been introduced in the past several years in Congress and state legislatures, and several of them have been enacted into law. However, protection of student privacy remains limited. Our recent report explores how corporate entities use their involvement with schools to gather student data and how those data may be used for marketing and other non-school-related purposes. Although most people probably know that digital marketers targetand track children on the devices they use, many would be surprised to learn that schools now serve both as a portal to and reinforcer of digital marketing messages to children. In so doing, they lend companies that collect, sell, analyze, and buy data both enhanced credibility and access to vast amounts of education-related data.

Our Facebook privacy nightmare somehow keeps getting worse.
The vast majority of Facebook users have likely had their public profile data scraped by third-parties, CEO Mark Zuckerberg revealed Wednesday.
SEE ALSO: Deleting Facebook won't fix our privacy nightmare
The seemingly massive privacy loophole was the result of a feature that allowed people to search for friends using their phone number. The setting, which has now been removed, was enabled by default in order to make it easier for users' to find friends.
But on Wednesday, Facebook's chief technology officer Mike Schroepfer revealed that bad actors have been abusing the feature for years in order to gain access to public profile data. "Given the scale and sophistication of the activity we’ve seen, we believe most people on Facebook could have had their public profile scraped in this way," he wrote.
Later, during a call with reporters, Zuckerberg confirmed that a large percentage of Facebook users have likely had their data scraped since the setting was enabled by default. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?&tag=Big+Data..

Microsoft is out to prove blockchain naysayers wrong. In an effort to show the potential of the technology beyond its applications in cryptocurrency, the Redmond giant has announced plans to use blockchain tech as the foundation for storing and processing digital identity data.
Following a collaboration with the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF), Microsoft has revealed its plans to rely on blockchain technology to solve some of the challenges we face when managing our identities and personal data digitally, such as improving privacy and security across the physical and digital world.
“We believe it is essential for individuals to own and control all elements of their digital identity,” the company said in a blog post. “Rather than grant broad consent to countless apps and services, and have their identity data spread across numerous providers, individuals need a secure, encrypted digital hub where they can store their identity data and easily control access to it.”
To this end, the company is developing an off-chain solution – akin to the Lightning Network – that will allow it to process massive volumes of ID data without congesting the blockchain network.

There is no doubt that companies of all shapes and sizes are increasing their spend in internet-of-things (IoT) technology. In fact, IDC projects this to be a $1.4 trillion market by 2021. With the increased spend and demand by consumers for low-price and high-value IoT devices, makers of these connected technologies have put a premium on affordability. The race to the bottom on price has inadvertently created major risks for organizations and consumers, according to PwC’s “Uncovering the Potential of the Internet of Things” report.
The pressure is on, and we see many makers of connected devices that produce IoT products as inexpensively as possible skipping important steps such as the design of security and privacy protections. This is generating significant new risks that are not widely understood during a time when consumers are more concerned about price than privacy and security. Risks include physical, software, encryption and network attacks, all of which could have wide-ranging effects on our daily lives, from taking over a connected car to obtaining sensitive data from a connected home to accessing a private network via a wearable device. Also, there are societal concerns, including getting access to valuable intellectual property, sabotage to companies or governments and espionage. Consumer-focused companies need to ensure they are meeting their customers’ concerns. Simply put, the proper cybersecurity and privacy measures can aid businesses in seeing the full potential of IoT.

Yahoo soll für US-Dienste neue Software geschrieben, sie hinter dem Rücken der eigenen Security-Abteilung installiert und damit alle Kundenmails gescannt haben. Juristische Gegenwehr gab es offenbar keine. Ob die Überwachung andauert, ist nicht bekannt. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/securite-pc-et-internet/?tag=Yahoo...

Niantic Labs, partnering with Nintendo and Pokémon Co., released “Pokémon Go,” a free game for iPhones and Android phones. When you launch it, you see the game franchise’s world famous “pocket monsters” as if they existed in your backyard or bathtub. The point? To “catch ’em all,” as the kids say.
This is augmented reality, or AR, where your smartphone’s camera, GPS and position sensors tell the game what to display and where. It’s a digital world layered over the real one. Unlike virtual reality, which transports you to another universe, you play in your own.
Pikachu is the most well known Pokémon. The technology isn’t new. Smartphones have had AR games for years, and even Nintendo previously released similar features for its 3DS hand-held device. This isn’t even especially good execution of AR. Which is why perhaps not even Nintendo predicted what happened next.

When was the last time you saw a creepy ad on Facebook, which seemed to know about a product you were discussing with a coworker? Or when was the last time you noticed that your Google search had been modified to suit variables like your current location and personal interests?
These micro-events happen on a daily basis for most of us, and are reminders of how valuable and how ubiquitous our data really is. Data is the currency of the new world, and with 2.5 quintillion bytes of data created each day, that status isn’t going away anytime soon.
The problem is, data scientists and analysts are constantly talking about the potential for how to use this data, but too few are talking about the ethics. If we’re going to keep pushing for better systems built on big data, we need to democratize and popularize the ethical conversation surrounding them.
