A public lecture series of Cyber Security

03.12.2015

Discussion on cyber security will continue in spring 2016 with a series of five lectures.

Aalto University will organise a public lecture series "Cyber security affects all of us", which takes an in-depth look at cyber security themes from different perspectives over the course of five lectures. The lectures, which will be open to everyone, examine current topics and explain cyber security in a way that all of us can understand.

Each lecture can also be viewed either via a live feed or at a later time online. A link to the live feed comnet.aalto.fi/video

The Twitter hashtag for the lectures is #aaltokyber.

We hope to see you there!
