Corona Update #2

***Update Coronavirus***

Dear members,

Following the recent updates by the government and the UvA on the coronavirus, we have decided to close the VSPA room until at least the 6th of April. As a JoHo member, you can find your summaries online. Furthermore, all events will be cancelled until at least the 6th of April. We are working hard to reschedule these events.

We will always be available for questions via our usual channels. We would also like to ask our members to follow the national guidelines and take responsibility in this crisis.

Lots of love and hopefully see you soon,
Céline, Lynn, Eli, Nina, Malou and David

Corona Update

** CORONA UPDATE **

Dear members,

Following the statement from the UvA to cancel all events up and until the 31th of March, regardless of the location, we have to cancel the upcoming events in March. These will be:
– The Friday Afternoon Borrel on the 13th of March;
– The GMA on the 17th of March;
– The Workshop on the 18th of March;
– The Committee Evening on the 27th of March;
– The Jeu de Boule event on the 31st of March.
We are working very hard to try to reschedule these events, and will keep you updated. If you already bought a ticket for the event, you will get a refund. You can expect the refund within a week.

Furthermore, all committee meetings will be canceled for the remainder of the month. Your CAO will get in touch with the chair of the committee.

Moreover, we will change the opening hours of the VSPA room this week. For now, we will open the VSPA room to sell summaries on:
Wednesday the 18th of March from 13:00-15:00
Friday the 20th of March from 13:00-15:00
We would also like to ask our members to follow the national guidelines.

These are the measures we are taking right now. Since there is a possibility that the situation changes, we would have to change our policy as well. We will keep a close eye on the developments and keep you informed through our usual channels. Don’t stress too much. We as young people are not that much at risk, we want to prevent the further spread of the virus to keep the pressure on healthcare as low as possible. ??‍⚕️??‍⚕️

Lots of love ?,

WORKSHOP HACKEN 30 APRIL!

** This event only applies to Dutch students **
 
Tegenwoordig is bijna wekelijks in de krant te lezen hoe grote organisaties hun informatieveiligheid niet op orde hebben. Is het echt zo moeilijk om je te weren tegen hackers? En is het dan zo
gemakkelijk om iemand te hacken? Helaas is het antwoord op beide vragen vaak ‘ja’. Gelukkig geldt ook hier het aloude cliché: begin bij jezelf. Wat is de beste manier om je te wapenen? Door in ieder geval te weten hoe je gehackt kunt worden!
In deze workshop gegeven door Calco, gespecialiseerd in het opleiden, detacheren en coachen van startende én ervaren IT-professionals, leer je hoe hackers te werk gaan. Zo leer je onder anderen hoe je phishing mails stuurt, inbreekt op een WiFi-netwerk en een Android telefoon hackt. Je leert begrijpen hoe een hacker te werk gaat en waar zich kwetsbaarheden voordoen. Het uiteindelijke doel is leren hoe je hacks kunt vermijden en bij je (toekomstige) werkgever kwetsbaarheden kunt spotten.
Voorafgaand zal er ook een bedrijfspresentatie zijn waarin Calco zal presenteren wie ze zijn, wat ze doen en ook wat ze voor jou kunnen betekenen!
