What is Data@Rest: Bits n’ Bytes
A half-day virtual event focused on information security that features a variety of voices from the UNC IT community in a TED Talk style format. Some talks are long, some are short, it just depends on the topic! Our goal for this event is to create an opportunity for the IT community to get some CPE credits for certifications, share some insights about challenges we all face in the information security space, or even simply raise the profile of a project or team.
So why is Data@Rest in the title? Because it is also the release date of Season 4 of the ITS Information Security Office’s podcast Data@Rest!
When is it?
The morning of Friday, March 26th. Exact time is TBD as we are still accepting submissions for talks. Want to present? Send us an e-mail at dataatrest@unc.edu.
