Dr. Hayes, Director of Cybersecurity, Pace University, will introduce us to the concept of cybersecurity and what it means for us, for our economy, and for our national security.

We will be introduced to the concept of cyberwarfare and gain insight into how each of us is being tracked, and how we can protect ourselves online and on our smartphones.
