Information Security - understanding & mitigating digital surveillance
Surveillance and Privacy Erosion have become increasingly pervasive as a result of the widespread adoption and daily use of digital tools. People in digital-centric societies produce a growing stream of personal data of interest to various state/corporate entities. Although those engaged in political activism are obvious targets for such surveillance, they are often among the most technically uneducated. This workshop will touch on the salient points and characters involved in the history of the evolution of
surveillance, and discuss some available methods for mitigating and countering this threat.
