Cybersecurity Talk From David J. Malan
|
|
About The Speaker: David J. Malan is a Gordon McKay Professor of Computer Science at Harvard
University, and is best known for teaching the course CS50.
Abstract: A brief introduction to cybersecurity. Last year, the most common password,
by one measure, was 123456. And the fourth-most common password was ... password. Suffice it to say we can do better, but there are trade-offs. Learn how you can keep your own computer and phone (more) secure. Just how private are your emails and texts? What's
end-to-end encryption? And just what does incognito mode do? All this and more.
When: 5-6PM, Thursday 8th February
Where: Lecture Theatre B, Department of Computer Science 7 Parks Rd, Oxford
OX1 3QG

Make sure
to join OxWoCS (Oxford Women in CS), a society we're working closely with, if you identify as a
woman or woman-adjacent person in CS! They have a host of wonderful events on, including talks, panels and socials. Computer Science is unfortunately a subject with one of the biggest gender gaps in Oxford and worldwide, and addressing this is
at the core of OxWoCS.
