Topic: Personal information and data are important in today’s tech landscape. Your identity and online activity are treated as currency to hackers, scammers, and threat actors. This causes many people to shell up or run away when any website or app asks for their information. However, there are some online spaces that ask for your information to help you. Today, we’re joined by Andre McGregor from ForceMetrics to discuss the impact online data can have on public safety.

Topic: Here we go again, another week and we have even more hacks to talk about. From small time hacks like Spotify uploads, on up to potentially the largest hack of all time in the National Public Data breach. It really seems like we can’t catch a break, but luckily the NSA also issued a press release recently detailing how you can prevent cyberattacks on your personal smart devices. We’ll share those tips and explain them to you later.

Topic: Now that we’re well into the summer, we wanna talk about IT Degrees available in Mississippi. Many of you - yourselves, or your children or grandchildren, may be interested in getting a degree in information technology here in the state but don’t know much about it or are intimidated by it. Today, we’ll be joined by Herb Brown from the Mississippi Coding Academies, who will help us de-mystify the concept of IT Schooling and hopefully encourage some people that may be interested in getting this education.
