@rajasekharponakala Thank you! Looking forward to having you attend our session. We definitely have something awesome prepared for this with a curriculum to go with it.
Vision Statement Draft
Working with Code for Africa, we plan to organize an interactive session on social engineering in Africa so that internet users and others (such as journalist, information security enthusiasts) can identify and understand the nature of social engineering and its effect happening in Africa. We also hope to build a community of information security enthusiasts that can lobby around online security in Africa to increase awareness.
We are working open because (1) we hope people can share their stories of online manipulation/data or money theft that they have experienced or heard from their communities. Collective stories of this kind, would assist other audiences to identify similar scenarios and hence be cautious. (2) we hope to build a community which may start from our contributors.
