Hello, Free Software Movement Maharashtra (FSMM) in association with Software Freedom Law Centre (SFLC) is organising a cryptoparty at VJTI, in Mumbai on the 7th of September 2013.
What is a cryptoparty? A CryptoParty is a hands-on training program where we introduce Internet users to the tools that help in protecting privacy in the online world. The training program will teach the ways in which communications and data can be encoded to prevent disclosure of their contents through eavesdropping or message interception, using codes (2), ciphers (3), and other methods, so that only certain people can see the real message. Agenda: Introduction Browsing Security TOR Browser security Password Management Email and IM Security Web based email Email clients (thunderbird) Mail encryption The session will also look at the legal and philosophical aspects of the issue as well.
