Location

Degheri Alumni Center, 120

Cost

Free

Even if computers were made to be perfectly secure (they are not) and Internet companies maintained perfect security over our data (they do not), each of us would still be responsible for following good computer security practices to protect ourselves as much as we can. In this talk, Dr. Mark Heckman from the Shiley-Marcos School of Engineering will explain some of the basic good computing habits that everyone should practice on their home computers, tablets, and phones.

Bridges Academy is a continuing education program for those 55 and older. Join us for exciting lectures given by USD’s leading faculty. All lectures are held mid-week on the picturesque USD campus. While the lecture series is free to all participants, the Office of Planned Giving encourages the growth of the Bridges Endowed Scholarship fund, which awards merit-based scholarships to undergraduate students. We look forward to seeing you on campus!
