Video Podcast “Password to Consciousness: Digital Literacy as Personal Security”

As part of the ERASMUS+ KA2 project TeDiMeLi, the team of Chernihiv Polytechnic National University presents an episode of the video podcast “Password to Consciousness: Digital Literacy as Personal Security”.

A fraudulent message in a community chat and a propaganda post have more in common than it seems: both rely on our trust, emotions, and haste. Why do even educated people fall for manipulations? Who is responsible for a fake spreading across the network: the author or everyone who clicks “forward”? And why is the phrase “I have nothing to hide” dangerous not only for you, but for society as a whole?

These issues are reflected upon by:

– Nataliia Shakun, Head of the Department of Philosophy and Social Sciences

– Dmytro Mekhed, Associate Professor at the Department of Cybersecurity and Mathematical Modeling

A philosopher’s and a cybersecurity specialist’s perspectives on a single problem, an analysis of a real fraud scenario, and practical advice you can apply today.
