AN END OF YEAR CELEBRATION EVENT (WITH A BIT OF TECH)

From Corona virus – to Crypto virus
From an infected nose (Corona Virus) to an infected mobile (Crypto Virus).

In this talk, Dr David Cook FACS will take us through a journey of discovery towards a higher understanding about Ransomware. From humble Trojan exploits through to sophisticated and multi layered malware attacks, this presentation will highlight new and emerging threats to help take your mind off the troubles of COVID-19.

To pay up or not to Pay? – that is the question.  Find out what sort of people pay, and whether it’s worth the money.

The presentation will briefly cover Trojans, Bitcoin, Crypto-currency, Mobile Ransomware, Reputational Threats and Ransomware in the Cloud.

2020 feels like it has been held to ransom. Join us for this end of year session to ‘decrypt’ our ACS network.

Light refreshments will be provided along with end of year networking in the beautiful ECU Mount Lawley Campus Courtyard.
