What will happen in your session?
There are many open source and creative commons tools, guides and curriculums that are available for people to help people learn about and train about information security. For example, Umbrella App, Security in a Box, Level-Up.CC and Surveillance Self Defence – to name just a few.
But these are community projects and rely on volunteers to keep them up to date.
This session will: -Give an overview of what tools, guide and curriculums are available and their current status, strengths/weaknesses, use cases, and needs -Conduct an information security resource share -Share experiences on how information security is taught and how these resources can be used -Conduct user testing to gather feedback on content, design and usability of these resources
What is the goal or outcome of your session?
The goals and outcome of these sessions will be:
-Spread awareness about the wide variety of open source/creative commons resources that are available for people to use for information security training and user education -Collect structured feedback from end users to pass on to respective projects. -Integrate new participants with a wide variety of skills into the community of open source information security education practitioners -Where time allows, we will attempt to fill gaps in existing material, translation and implementation frameworks.
If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.
A projector would be useful, as will basic office supplies, though we will bring as much of this of our own as possible as a backup.
