Dataharvest 2024 - the European Investigative Journalism Conference

How do you protect your own computer and data from attacks? An antivirus programme is no longer enough: computer viruses still arrive in your inbox as email attachments, but you can also import malicious code by simply clicking on a website. In many cases, users do not even realise that their own computer is being misused, and remotely controlled via the Internet. This workshop will explain how to increase your own computer security, simply and effectively. Bring your own device to this session, and we will help you change your settings in order to make your set up more secure. Please back up your device before attending the session.
