<div dir="ltr">Greetings All!<div><br></div><div>For the first meeting of 2018 on January 10, we will be welcoming Thomas Delrue talking about OpenVPN. A VPN allows you to connect securely to a remote network from your device. Most people are familiar with a VPN connection to work. VPNs are also useful for connecting back to your home network or creating secure connections out of networks which are considered insecure, such as a hotel network.</div><div><br></div><div><div>Running an OpenVPN Server on your Raspberry Pi: Thomas Delrue will go through his experience in getting an OpenVPN Server set up and running on a Raspberry Pi, followed by an open discussion on how to secure the VPN server even more. At the end of the presentation, you too should be able to set up an OpenVPN server at home!</div><div><br></div><div><div>Thomas Delrue is a software guy who's been around: he's fulfilled roles from senior software engineer to chief software architect for companies large and small. He has also presented at CALUG before! He has a deep passion for privacy & security and has been an advocate</div><div>for enabling and empowering a stronger privacy protection shield through software tools as well as education.</div></div><div><br></div><div><div style="font-size:12.8px">I look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday evening. We will be hosted at the UMBC Training Center, located at 6996 Columbia Gateway Dr #100, Columbia, MD 21046. When you walk in through the main lobby make a right.
