OIT Training Learn IT @ Lunch - Mobile Apps: The good, the bad and the ugly...

No matter which camp you belong to: iPhone, Android, MS Phone or (sigh) Blackberry, one thing is clear: mobile devices are here to stay and propagate. With the convenience of having a smart companion almost every hour of the day comes a challenge to keep your personal information private, your online purchasing secure, your geographic location known only to your friends. Software markets are full of apps that claim to help you to not only exterminate pesky pigs, but secure your device in the process. Should we trust them? Which apps are really good, which are harmful? Do I need a special app to secure my device, or good old screen lock is good enough? We will do our best to answer these questions. We also encourage everyone to bring your favorite security app for the open forum portion of the show. Learn IT @ Lunch is designed to be an opportunity to learn about technology in a relaxed lunch environment. Each session includes a presentation followed by Q & A. No pre-registration is required. Seating is available on a first come, first served basis. NOTE: Lunch is not provided. Feel free to bring a brown bag lunch.
