As the father of two daughters and a security professional, I am concerned about the privacy issue and so wrote this book to help raise privacy awareness by addressing that intersection between technology and the physical world in a fun and non-technical way.
The Smart Woman's Guide to Privacy Protection is intended to help people protect their personal privacy and give them the tools needed to reclaim their privacy in both the physical and virtual world.
Starting with something as innocent as a work email address, anyone with an Internet connection could be looking at the front door of your home in a few minutes. It has become that easy.
Most people are unaware of the amount of their personal information that is out there in the virtual world and this book will guide you through the process of locating your information and show you how to remove it - from the source. There are many subtle ways that your privacy can be violated, on and off the Internet, and by raising your overall awareness you can better protect yourself and your family right now.
Please contact me for arranging purchases at cost for woman's groups and non-profits.
