Hi Geeks, I'm Dipak Parmar, Club Leader at Mozilla Club Patan, a professional cyber-security enthusiast and a Mozillian who really gets excited when gets opportunity to work on any kind of project in this domain, as I begin my journey with Mozilla community I have been with them from past 2 years. I met the Mozilla Gujarat team at MakerFest 2016 Ahmedabad.  The year after I found "the hacker meetup" event is happening in the city and I'm interested to learn more about cyber security and get in touch with Viral Parmar CEO of ComExpo Cyber Security and Mozillian Rep. His Project LogOut - Cyber Awareness Campaign is selected by the Mozilla. So when I found out that “Viral Parmar” was organizing a cyber-awareness conference (LOGOUT Gujarat’s 1st Cyber Awareness Conference) in Ahmedabad, I applied to be a part of working team so that I could get involved and contribute to what I am positive will become an important privacy and cybersecurity conference over time.

As new phones, computers, automated tellers, and security devices become familiar around the world; there are also people determined to break into them, as opposed to utilizing them correctly.

Windows and Linux in the same line? Yes, you heard that right... and that too, on the same computer and within the same operating system. Two months ago, Microsoft announced its plans to let its users install  three different flavours of the Linux  operating system –  Ubuntu ,  Fedora , and  SUSE  – directly through their Windows Store, allowing them to run Windows and Linux apps side-by-side.
