[sudo-discuss] Cryptoparties: Now Coming Monthly to a Sudo Near You!

[Jenny Ryan]

Due to incredible enthusiasm and demand, Sudo Room will now be hosting
monthly Cryptoparties! Join us from 2-5pm every Third Sunday to learn about
digital security and get up and running with basic tools for privacy and
anonymity.

*What's a Cryptoparty?*

A Cryptoparty is a safe space for learning about digital security, privacy
and anonymity. In the wake of Snowden's leak of the NSA's PRISM project,
digital security has become a widespread concern. What most people don't
know enough about is the advantages and disadvantages of various tools such
as TOR, GPG, and OTR.

*That's a lot of acronyms!

*
No worries! Friendly geeks will be giving presentations, answering any
questions, and leading hands-on workshops to get you comfortable using the
right tools for you. By the end of the day, you'll have learned security
techniques & software, understand why responsible security is important,
and have made friends with other proactive residents! Bring your phone and
your laptop. *All* skill levels are welcome!

Spread to your networks. Fliers to come!
