Is Tellico Village Computer Users Club Going to Have to Shut Down? Do I have your attention? Please read that again. This Club is run by Volunteers plain and simple. No Volunteers – No Club. We have been asking for people to step up and volunteer for years, but, all we have heard is silence or something like: “I don’t know about computers”. Stepping up to do a Board position or a Committee position takes no more “computer” skills than an Office job. Just basic organization skills. We can teach the skills. It takes two other things: Caring about helping others and about 6-8 hours a month of your time. We have to fill the position of Vice President and the position of Secretary or we will not have a Board of Directors as required by law which will force this Club to shut down.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject:NSEFU.ORG PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT Date:Tue, 25 Sep 2018 19:58:52 +0000 From:Pandora Vreeland <buckrunne@hotmail.com>To:TAP <tap@tvcuc.org> To: Warren Sanders and the Incredible Members of the Tellico Village Computer Club GREAT NEWS! Check out the very first Public Service Announcement for NSEFU Wildlife Conservation. Please click on the Youtube (below) to see how NSEFU is fighting poaching from several angles. The enthusiastic school children are learning about saving these endangered animals while studying in the new school that NSEFU built. NSEFU is teaching beekeeping as a way to teach villagers a valuable skill and a way to raise money for NSEFU and their anti-poaching efforts. The new sewing school, also built by NSEFU, is teaching skills to the villagers so their families can earn money from sewing instead of their men resorting to poaching. It is a 360 degree approach and they are making a BIG difference! The very brave NSEFU Rangers have destroyed over three thousand animal snares in only three years and many poachers have been caught-in-the-act and JAILED. One of your Tellico Computer Club laptops is shown being presented by my sister to the staff at the new school in the video. She said the school staff looked at her like she had just given them the Holy Grail. Thank you all for helping in this desperate fight. [fyi-My sister, Coe Lewis, is a full-time Rock & Roll disc jockey in San Diego, CA on station WKGB. She is one of the hard-driving co-founders of NSEFU and narrates this video.] With respect and gratitude to each of you, Pandora Vreeland Pandora Vr e eland buckrunne@hotmail.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNw-qdglVmw TVCUC, Connecting Your World

Protecting Your Personal Information: - Cyber Security Joint Education Presentation by HOA
What we plan to cover today • What exactly is ‘Cyber Security’? • How big is this issue? Who is affected? • Tips to reduce computer threats – Home Wi-Fi Network – Passwords – Virtual Private Network (VPN) – Requests for personal information • Financial – Credit bureaus – Accessing Financial sites – Note: This presentation will be made available on-line on the Neighborhood Watch and TVCUC websites.
Some Definitions • What is “Cyber” or “Digital”? • “Cyber” is a term used to define all electronic communications and computer based activities both personally and business. • “Digital” is a term often used in place of “Cyber” because computers and communications use a system of digits (numbers) instead of letters and words. • “Cyber” is used with other terms: • Cyber Space: Basically that is the Internet. • Cyber Crime: Attacks on computers - personal or business • Cyber Security: Protecting from attacks.
So, Who is Affected? • EVERYONE! • WE ARE ALL JUST FLOATING IN THE CYBER SEA – EVEN IF WE DO NOT USE A COMPUTER OR SMART PHONE, OUR BANKS, THE GOVERNMENT, PLACES WE SHOP, MEDICAL RECORDS, WHEN WE BUY A HOME – ALL THE TRANSACTIONS ARE DONE IN CYBERSPACE WHICH PUTS US IN CYBER SPACE.
How Connected Are We?
Just How Big A Problem? • Us Director of National Intelligence (Jan 2014) ranks cybercrime as the top national security threat • Global cost of cybercrime estimated to be $445B- $575B in 2013. • U.S. cybercrime hit was ≈$100B That would be the world’s 27 th largest economy if cybercrime were a country
Who is Targeting You?
Does this apply to anyone here? So How do you Protect Yourself? • #1 Use Passwords – REAL ONES!! – Keep updated. EVERYWHERE!! • Make sure the Password is a Strong Password. • Consider Password keeper software.
No Joke…. People do Use these: • Recent password breaches at sites like Adobe have shown how insecure many of our passwords are. Here is a list of the most common passwords that turned up in the Adobe breach. It probably goes without saying: Avoid using these passwords. • 123456 • 000000 • 123456789 • abc123 • password • 1234 • admin • adobe1 • 12345678 • macromedia • qwerty • azerty • 1234567 • iloveyou • 111111 • aaaaaa • photoshop • 654321 • 123123 • 1234567890
So what is a strong password? • The only secure password is one that you can't remember, but there are times when you can't use a password manager and need to rely on your memory. • The longer the password, the harder it is to crack. Consider a 12-character password or longer. • Avoid names, places, and dictionary words. • Mix it up. Use variations on capitalization, spelling, numbers, and punctuation.
