At “Holiday in Humboldt,” skaters from the local community will join forces with special guests from other parts of California to raise funds for new skateparks in Humboldt County

“Events like Holiday in Humboldt boost the economy and enhance our community,” said Hannah Whyte, Emerald Queen Farms. “We live in Humboldt and are always thinking about ways to help to capture more visitor dollars and enable our rural community to thrive.”

EUREKA, Calif. (PRWEB)
September 09, 2019

Humboldt Skatepark Collective, along with numerous business sponsors, will host its annual fundraiser, “Holiday in Humboldt with Hard Luck Mfg. and Friends,” on Saturday, September 14 from 10:00 am-6:00 pm PT at Cooper’s Gulch Skatepark, 1720 10th Street in Eureka, CA.

“Humboldt Skatepark Collective is developing a more robust network of skateparks on the North Coast, and boosting awareness of skateboarding as an outdoor recreational sport in Humboldt County,” said Charlie Caldwell, Executive Director, Humboldt Skatepark Collective. “With skateboarding scheduled to debut in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan, the time has never been better to spread the word about skateboarding as a well-respected and fully embraced sport in Humboldt.”

At Holiday in Humboldt, skaters from the local community will join forces with special guests from other parts of California to raise funds for new skateparks in Humboldt County. The event will feature a professional skating demonstration with a number of high-profile skaters, such as Jason Jessee, Jaws (Aaron Homoki), Evan Smith, Monica Torres, Wes Kremer, Jake Brown, Kiade Huston, Jimmy Cao, Figgy, Chelsea Castro, Chris Blake, Janthavy, Eli Williams, Brian (Slash) Henson, Ethan Loy and many more special guests.

The “Holiday in Humboldt” event is sponsored by a number of leading skate brands, including Hard Luck, Thrasher Magazine, Santa Cruz/NHS Fun Factory, Toy Machine, Vans and Ace Trucks, as well as a number of high-quality craft cannabis producers from Humboldt County, including Emerald Queen Farms, Barrett Farms, Aloha Humboldt, Trinity Sungrown Humboldt Terp Council, Papa and Barkley, and True Humboldt.

“Holiday in Humboldt is our 2nd annual competition and fundraiser, we know from last year’s success that this will become an anticipated event going forward,” said Hannah Whyte, Emerald Queen Farms. “Calling the fundraiser ‘Holiday in Humboldt’ is a play on how we are working to bring the skate community together off the beaten path for a trip to Humboldt, reckoning our community a destination for all things outdoors, including skating. The North Coast is such a beautiful place to live, and this is just one more reason to visit. Events like Holiday in Humboldt boost the economy and enhance our community. We live in Humboldt and care deeply about the health and success of the community, so we are always thinking about ways we can help to capture more visitor dollars and enable our rural community to thrive. This event is about furthering the collective good.”

The event will include a competition for local skaters, along with great food, local craft beer, and music. Dj Goldilocks will be pumping the tunes all Saturday at the event. North town coffee will provide the food for Saturday with beer from Redwood Curtain and Mad River brewery. It’s Alive kombucha will be serving local brew kombucha and Pharlee will play the after party, along with Oakland favorite Elderly Abuse.

The mission of Humboldt Skatepark Collective is to develop a more robust network of skateparks on the North Coast, and boost awareness of skateboarding as an outdoor recreational sport in Humboldt County. Proceeds will go toward building new skateparks in Humboldt, park enhancements and expansions at Willow Creek and other locations, and providing skateboards, helmets, and other gear for kids.

Year after year, the Cyberlympics challenges presented to the teams who make the finals are unexpected and impossible to train for.

Events like Cyberlympics provide a consequence-free environment for professionals to push their skills to the limits. Within the confines of the game, players can experiment with creative approaches to problems they may face in the real fight against cyber criminals.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (PRWEB)
September 09, 2019

The elimination round of EC-Council Foundation’s worldwide hacking competition, Global Cyberlympics, was held Saturday, September 7 and the top two finalists from each region are invited to attend the finals in the Region of Durham. The elimination round was a grueling, 12-hour test of hacking skills played at the same time around the world.

This year’s competition included but weren’t limited to teams from Deloitte, IBM, Grant Thornton LLP, EY, KPN, the National Bank of Egypt, Accenture, and PwC. Global Cyberlympics players also represented 18 universities and colleges from around the world. The top two teams from each region are invited to play in the in-person finals to be held October 26th in Oshawa, Canada. The teams advancing to the finals are:

North America

1st Place – BisonSquad

2nd Place – 4N0M3LY

South America

1st Place – H3x Pr0ph3ts

2nd Place – Bad Bounty

Asia

1st Place – Bit Thugs

2nd Place – No signal

Australia

1st Place – Scr1pts0nTh3Barb1e

2nd Place – TSS

Europe

1st Place – MapleL33ts

2nd Place – Jobless Hackers

Africa

1st Place – W1ld60yz

2nd Place – Hackwaba Cybersec

Each year, the champion from the previous year automatically qualifies to return and defend their title. The 2018 Champions were a team called Sector C from The Netherlands. This year, since the finals will be hosted in Canada, the top scoring Canadian team will also be invited to the finals to represent Canada. The top scoring Canadian team from the semifinals was YegSec.

The finals will be held in partnership with Canadian company siberX. SiberX is a roaming, customized platform for training, events, and skills development and host of CISO Forum Canada. There is an incredible amount of enthusiasm for the games in the Durham Region, with all 7 cities that make up the region participating in various ways to ensure the 2019 finals are the biggest and best yet. Previous world Finals for the Games have been held in Barcelona, Spain; Washington, DC; Atlanta, GA; and The Hague, Netherlands, making this the first Cyberlympics to be held in Canada.

The Finals will be held at Durham College in Oshawa and the awards ceremony will be hosted at the Special Events Center in Ajax.

Events like Cyberlympics provide a consequence-free environment for professionals to push their skills to the limits. Within the confines of the game, players can experiment with creative approaches to problems they may face in the real fight against cyber criminals. In fact, cyber games require players to try new tools, new techniques, and attacks with a high degree of risk if they hope to win. The best games build challenges that teams have not encountered before, going well beyond capture the flag (CTF) type of events that are common at conferences and online.

Year after year, the Cyberlympics challenges presented to the teams who make the finals are unexpected and impossible to train for. Teams have to rely on their skills and hope their instincts guide them to right solution. For instance, the 2018 Cyberlympics finals started with a set of challenges in a box. The challenges spanned from old school forensics to hacking a Bluetooth lock. What’s was in the box? A plethora of network and building diagrams, a dossier, magazine for some light reading, a Bluetooth dongle, UV light, USB thumb drive and a shredded document.

Teams were required to reassemble their shredded document to retrieve a t0k3n that was left behind. Next, teams needed to determine which printer the dossier came from and where it was located on the network using the UV light and “yellow dot forensics.” Then, without touching the Bluetooth lock, they had to open it using only their computer, a PCAP file and Bluetooth dongle.

Teams that successfully opened the lock were required to demonstrate the methods used in order to receive the networking gear which would get them access to the game board. From there, teams saw challenges ranging from network packet analysis, system exploitation, reverse engineering, malware analysis, digital forensics and of course plenty of physical challenges!

BullGuard makes it simple to protect everything in your digital life – from your data, your identity, your privacy and your smart home.

“Accessing public Wi-Fi without the use of a VPN (Virtual Private Network), is akin to driving your car without insurance — sooner or later you’re going to end up paying the price for being negligent,” said Paul Lipman, CEO, BullGuard

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)
September 12, 2019

Amid ongoing identity theft and privacy-related breaches, new research published today by cybersecurity company, BullGuard, revealed substantial gaps between consumers’ privacy concerns and their actual behaviors. The study shows 53% of Americans, 48% of Brits and 62% of Germans are concerned about privacy, but 74% of Americans, 80% of Brits, and 86% of Germans don’t use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) when accessing public Wi-Fi, with convenience trumping privacy and security risks in their rush to get online. A VPN empowers consumers with a highly effective, easy way to safeguard themselves when using public Wi-Fi from their smartphone, tablet or laptop, and adds an extra layer of security and privacy when used on the home network.

Unbeknownst to most consumers, hackers can easily spoof and set up malicious open Wi-Fi networks that appear to be legitimate (e.g. ‘Free Airport Wi-Fi’), but in fact intercept and record all network traffic, including people’s intimate personal data, and allow fraudsters to steal usernames, passwords, credit card details, bank account information and more. Alarmingly, approximately one in five Americans (19%) used a credit card while connected to public Wi-Fi, 17% of Brits performed online banking, and 14% of Germans accessed an insecure website — even though 53% of Americans, 48% of Brits and 62% of Germans believe their data is not secure while on a public Wi-Fi network and two-thirds of all survey respondents stated they are most worried about their banking information being hacked and stolen.

“Consumers are playing Russian Roulette with their personal data and privacy, opting for convenience over safety when using public Wi-Fi,” said Paul Lipman, CEO of BullGuard. “The research findings clearly indicate that Americans, Brits, and Germans do not feel safe online, yet they are ignoring their fears and risking financial theft, identity theft, account fraud and more in their quest to use public Wi-Fi. Accessing public Wi-Fi without the use of a VPN is akin to driving your car without insurance – sooner or later you’re going to end up paying the price for being negligent.”

The research also revealed 48% of Americans, 62% of Brits and 69% of Germans are only using antivirus (AV) software to protect their online information on their home Wi-Fi. AV software prevents, detects and removes malware and helps protect users from other threats such as ransomware, malicious URLs, phishing scams, botnet DDoS attacks and more, but it does not hide a consumer’s origin IP address or prevent others – including ISPs (Internet Service Providers) and government organizations – from monitoring a consumer’s online browsing activity, including what websites they visit, what they download or what services and applications they use.

“A disconnect currently exists in the minds of consumers between the benefits and differences of AV software and VPN. The research findings indicate a need to educate consumers that VPN is not simply a useful tool for streaming geo-locked content, but an integral component to safeguard their overall online security and privacy,” stated Lipman. “While antivirus software is essential for detecting and removing malware from your PC, smartphone and tablet devices, it offers no protection from having your personal data intercepted by a malicious hotspot or blocking your ISP from monitoring your online browsing activity.”

Additionally, a significant number of individuals (19% of Americans, 12% of Brits and 7% of Germans, respectively) use no additional methods and rely solely on their ISP and browser to keep their online information private and secure. This despite results that show consumers believe the following entities are tracking their online activities:

1.    Search engines such as Google (56% Americans, 63% Brits and 71% Germans)

2.    Internet Browser (51% Americans, 57% Brits and 57% Germans)

3.    Internet Service Provider (53% Americans, 58% Brits and 44% Germans)

4.    Online retailers like Amazon (46% Americans, 54% Brits and 61% Germans)

5.    Social media platforms such as Facebook (55% Americans and 62% Brits)*

6.    Messenger apps such as Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp (42% Americans and 51% Brits)*

7.    Social media platforms and messengers, e.g. Facebook and WhatsApp (65% Germans)**

8.    US government (52% Americans and 36% Brits)*

9.    UK government (15% Americans and 55% Brits)*

10.    German government (34% Germans)**

• 
  US and UK only; **Germany only

The BullGuard commissioned survey was conducted in August 2019 and queried a total of 5,000 adult consumers across the US, the UK, and Germany (2000 each in the US and UK, and 1000 in Germany). A press kit including graphs, charts, logos and other assets related to the research study can be accessed here.
