Updated Shock-proofing your Use of Social Media Presentation

Category:Facebook,Higher Education,Information Security,Infosec Communicator,Internet Safety,Lessons Learned,password,Presentations,Privacy,Risk,Social Networking,STC,STC Rochester,Summit Tags : 

I’ve updated my Shock-proofing your Use of Social Media presentation for the Fall 2014 New Student Orientation program at the Rochester Institute of Technology. I’ve changed the passphrase example, added a new cartoon, and generally worked to make the presentation more culturally relevant to 18 to 20 year olds.

Let me know what you think of it!

A Techcomm Bestiary, Spectrum 2014

Category:Infosec Communicator,Presentations,STC,STC Rochester

I thought this came together pretty well and I had a great time presenting my first revision of A Techcomm Bestiary at STC Rochester’s Spectrum 2014. I may make a couple of slide changes before the STC Summit, but this is the meat of the presentation.

Putting this talk together was quite the experience, as I wandered through online pix from medieval bestiaries, reviewed techcomm roles, and read a little about animal symbolism.

The Secure Communicator–upcoming webinar

Category:Bulletproofing,Information Security,Infosec Communicator,Internet Safety,Lessons Learned,mobile device,password,Privacy,Risk,STC Tags : 

Has the Heartbleed bug made you more aware of the challenges you face trying to protect confidential or private information online? I’ll address the impacts of Heartbleed and other threats to your security in “The Secure Communicator,” an STC Education webinar on Thursday, June 5, at 5 pm EDT (GMT-4). I’ll provide registration details as soon as they’re available.

Here’s a general description of the seminar:

  • Most technical communicators know the importance of securing their work and online presence, but are often concerned only about confidentiality. However, good security is about three areas: Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. The presenter will explain the importance of these areas to your work as technical communicators and provide tips for ensuring that both your work and online presence are secure.

Won’t you join me?

Technical Communications Skills Map | Red Gate Software Development.

Have you wondered about the job possibilities available to you as a technical communicator? This skills map by Brian Harris provides a great view of where core techcomm skills can take you. (Please note that the original post is no longer available. I’ve linked to a higher-resolution image Kai Weber saved.)

Are there any areas you would add? For me, information security fits into both domain expertise and risk management.

The Society for Technical Communication provides a great place to learn about techcomm and develop the networking connections to take you along your career path. If you’re interested in techcomm, check us out.
