   * **Understanding Crypto Tools** -- what all the buttons really do, and how they fit into the big picture that is your security. We will explain general security models in technical but non-mathematical terms. This is intended to give you a more precise awareness of what you accomplish during each phase of using a tool. We will teach a (sharp) bird's-eye view of security topics, rather than the specific mathematics of the underlying cryptography.   * **Understanding Crypto Tools** -- what all the buttons really do, and how they fit into the big picture that is your security.

   * **Talk** -  is a visual communication program which copies lines from your terminal to that of another user. It first appeared in August 1983, included in the 4.2 release of BSD. Originally developed as a way for two users on a Unix network to converse via typing, talk is basically a communication between TTY (TeleTYpewriter). Although not secure on a LAN, unless the two machines are connected by a properly encrypted VPN, it is still an old school, simple way to communicate on a server, as safe as the server is. During this brief workshop we will demo the application, try to snoop it, then look at an alternative.  Requisites: ssh access to a remote terminal, a friend to talk to, confidential data to be discussed, and the desire for (server) intimacy.  [[http://xname.cc/|xname]] - presents a workshop on the TALK protocol.   * **Talk** -  is a visual communication program which copies lines from your terminal to that of another user.

We will discuss an open-source full-disk encryption setup, the de-facto best practice guidelines and then we will look at offensive security techniques that have been used to compromise full-disk encryption and explain mitigation strategies to help prevent unwanted eyes accessing your data.    * **Dog Ate My Crypto Keys 2.0** -- An overview of full-disk encryption solutions and lessons to learn in failures.

 +   * **Tell us your experience with digital security and crypto tools.** Cryptotools are like any other piece of software: they should be focused on what the user needs to do. Do you use cryptotools? Have you tried before but had problems? Come and have your say! A session where people can air the issues they have with crypto tools. The idea of the session would be to understand the problems people see, real or not - trust/lack of trust in the tools, complexity of tools, people’s understanding of what they do. This slot is focused on the user of the tool, *not* on the technology, and the people attending will decide the direction of the discussion.

 +   * **Analysis of surveillance** What is privacy really and why do we need it? Why is 'I Have Nothing To Hide' wrong on several levels (you life is not that boring!). We'll discuss the scope of surveillance problems, what can and can't (for now) be done about it and how to argue these issues with others (beginning with the tearing down of 'I Have Nothing To Hide'). Overview article on NSA/Snowden [[http://www.gendo.ch/en/blog/arjen/the-missed-opportunity-of-avoiding-prisms|here]], wider analysis of political context [[http://www.gendo.ch/en/blog/arjen/whats-it-for-the-objectives-of-policies-systems|here]] and a piece on who else beside Snowden may have access to NSA capabilities and info [[http://www.gendo.ch/en/blog/arjen/nsa-intell-goldmine-who-else-has-access|here]].  [[http://about.me/arjenkamphuis|Arjen Kamphuis]] is CTO of [[http://www.gendo.ch/en/blog/arjen|Gendo]], a IT-strategy & security consulting firm and trains journalists and socially active people all over Eurasia in basic [[http://www.gendo.ch/en/blog/arjen/info-security-workshop-centre-for-investigative-journalism|counter-surveillance techniques and methods]].  In NAB-305 from 12:00 to 13:00.

   * **Pirate Party UK** is a political party formed in 2009 that primarily promotes digital freedom, civil liberties, and copyright and patent reform. Pirate Party UK formed out of the wider international Pirate movement largely in response to the then-Digital Economy Bill. Since forming, the Party has stood in several elections, including the 2010 General Elections and taken part in ACTA protests. The Party has also been featured in the press on several occasions, both in technology and music industry press as well as national and international.

 +  * **Privacy International** We investigate the secret world of government surveillance and expose the companies enabling it. We litigate to ensure that surveillance is consistent with the rule of law. We advocate for strong national, regional, and international laws that protect privacy. We conduct research to catalyse policy change. We raise awareness about technologies and laws that place privacy at risk, to ensure that the public is informed and engaged.

 +  * **Open Rights Group**  Open Rights Group is the UK’s leading voice defending freedom of expression, privacy, innovation, creativity and consumer rights on the Internet. ORG is a member organisation of European Digital Rights (EDRi). We campaign to change public policy whenever your rights are threatened, by talking to policy-makers, informing the public through the media, and mobilising our supporters. We work on issues ranging from e-voting to copyright, open data and privacy. [[https://www.openrightsgroup.org/| https://www.openrightsgroup.org/]]

 +  * **Radical Philosophy** Radical Philosophy is a UK-based journal of socialist and feminist philosophy, the first issue of which appeared in January 1972. It was founded in response to the widely felt discontent with the sterility of academic philosophy at the time (in Britain, completely dominated by the narrowest sort of “ordinary language” philosophy), with the purpose of providing a forum for the theoretical work which was emerging in the wake of the radical movements of the 1960s, in philosophy and other fields. We will be bringing our net-politics/ critical theory issues.  [[http://www.radicalphilosophy.com/| http://www.radicalphilosophy.com/]]
