Hackers and cybercriminals are always trying to find a way into your systems for their own personal gain. An obvious way in for them is through the front door: your emails.

A securely set up email system is your shield from these bad guys. Using passwords, encryption and common sense, you put a metaphorical bouncer on the door and beef them up to repel attackers.
Since you’re obliged to give an email address for pretty much anything these days, everyone has one. Which is convenient, not only for us but also criminals: it gives them an easy way in. This course is designed to help you protect your data as well as your money.

Why design should include everyone | Sinéad Burke | TED Talk
Sinéad Burke’s TED Talk “Why design should include everyone” asks us to consider the people that are currently being neglected in the designs of our world. Burke explains some of the struggles that she deals with in daily life as a little person who is 105 centimeters tall. She highlights how current design thinking for public spaces inhibits her ability to do things for herself and impinges on her dignity and freedom of self expression. A great talk for schools or workplaces aiming to encourage disability awareness and empathy, Burke’s presentation is a moving call to change the way we think about accessibility, diversity and inclusion.
