Time details

The online Events shall start any time between 9am and 3pm EST (American East Cost), which is 4pm and 10 pm EAT (Eastern African Time) and so on. However, no two Events can be planned simultaneously. The Host who organizes the particular Event is supposed to check the calendar of the Meetup group and the CNM Social group in order to comply.

Online events are one hour long.

Hands-on assignments

Hands-on assignments that CNM learners can try to create the event.

Presentations

Presentations that present the event to its new users in multimedia, video, just audio, and/or just graphic formats.

Videos and audios

The Wiki publishes all the content of the Event including its specific agenda, minutes, and all available recordings. The recordings will also be published at YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@cnmcyber in order to be available to the general public.

Texts and graphics

The Wiki publishes all the content of the Event including its specific agenda, minutes, and all available recordings, and the links to the recordings are published at CNM Social https://social.cnmcyber.com/index.php?r=space%2Fspace%2Fhome&cguid=ab3c9485-b0cb-4d0a-9f09-457833683fb5 and at Meetup https://www.meetup.com/techdc in order to be available to the general public.

Security

For security, we use Fail2ban because it operates by monitoring log files (e.g. /var/log/auth.log, /var/log/apache/access.log, etc.) for selected entries and running scripts based on them. Most commonly this is used to block selected IP addresses that may belong to hosts that are trying to breach the system's security. It can ban any host IP address that makes too many login attempts or performs any other unwanted action within a time frame defined by the administrator. Includes support for both IPv4 and IPv6.

Calls use the P2P mode, which is end-to-end encrypted via DTLS-SRTP between the two participants for encrypted communication (secure communication). Group calls also use DTLS-SRTP encryption, but rely on the Jitsi Videobridge (JVB) as video router, where packets are decrypted temporarily. All data is transmitted only through our server, and comprehensive TLS encryption provides protection against interception and unauthorized eavesdropping.

Malware protection

Previously, CNM Cloud developers struggled with the viruses, so an effective anti-virus strategy must be found -- what was the solution?

User group

The Meetup group https://www.meetup.com/techdc/ and the user group at CNM Social https://social.cnmcyber.com/index.php?r=space%2Fspace%2Fhome&cguid=ab3c9485-b0cb-4d0a-9f09-457833683fb5 publishes all the announcement and notifications for online Events.
