PLUG's Security Meeting

This month Aaron Jones has a number of topic he will be covering at the PLUG Security meeting.

Part 1:
In light of recent events occurring in New Zealand we will discuss active shooter situations, terrorism, and physical security. We will cover the OODA Loop, mental toughness, and steps you can take to prepare for emergency situations. Topics will include threat avoidance, the Marine Corp Combat Hunter Program concept of 'Left Of Bang', and basic combat life saver tools and techniques.
 
Part 2:
PirateBox is a DIY anonymous offline file sharing device that you can create at home. The PirateBox is a simple method to get started with mesh networking and is an exciting way to provide decentralized communication in your local area. We will discuss how PirateBox and similar projects can improve your ability to communicate in a grid down situation, assist with file sharing at parties or events, and even work as a fun image board.
