My name is Finlay Maciver and I'm simple human :). Back then, I don't know much about the Internet, computing, complicated networking or privacy. You could say that I was a peasant who was ignorant about Internet! And then, I encounter these things when I attend my local college and I can tell that it give me a new passion for Cyber Security. Of course, not just Cyber security but also programming, networking, hardware and even GNU/Linux. I think GNU/Linux is the first field that make me "wake up to the reality" to replace Windows with Based GNU/Linux and well, I was (and still is) having way too much fun doing commands in my own Linux laptop! I also realise that this world have too many corrupted companies that don't care about their customers' rights and privacy, glad to sell their personal data to make more money and I found it out when I was in college, studying about GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). So I believe that everyone deserves to have small but much more decentralised place where nobody but themselves, threatens their own privacy. That doesn't mean we should only get free software but rather, a open-source software that you need to buy will respect your privacy and not sell your personal data so that's my belief.
This one is my very first course to apply and I thought it would be bit boring or something like that but when I study in this course, I was so shocked how much I enjoy this course a lot. This is actually where lockdown begin so that mean I have been staying at my home, without actually go to my college physically lol.
Here is what I learn about NQ Computing:
Now, when I had done with my NQ Computing, I want to go higher level for computer programming or hardware and so I was looking forward to this new course which is HNC Cyber Security. This is where I start to know about Linux and I even change my Windows Laptop OS to Linux OS (Operating System), thanks to my good friend who introduce me to Linux Alliance that I make through College so thank you! :)
I learn so many things that I enjoy to add my knowledge:
I have a few hobbies that I enjoy to spend my free time :)
