Tom has a Masters degree in +Electrical Engineering from the University of Minnesota where he +worked under [Otto H. Schmitt][ohs]. +He has combined his EE and community experiences in open source hardware +projects such as [USB TRNG][usbtrngblog] +and his software and intellectual property experiences by organizing +a legal and policy issues track at Europe's largest open source +conference, [FOSDEM][devroom2015]. + +Mr. Marble is committed to increasing diversity in technology +(especially in open source) by volunteering as an organizer +for [ClojureBridge Minneapolis][clojurebridge] + -- a weekend workshop for women to learn the Clojure programming language -- +as well as the +[GNOME Outreach Program for Women][opw] +on behalf of the [Debian][debian] project. + +Mr. Marble is the founder of Informatique, Inc.: a consultancy which +leverages his hardware, software and legal engineering background for +client projects as diverse as telematics for electric vehicles, +probabilistic model checking, autonomous cyber defense, and +multiplayer online gaming. + +## abstract + +We are stuck between knowing that our Internet communications +are vulnerable and using overly complex crypto tools. +This workshop will explain, step by step, how to use open source +encryption available in a live USB drive based system +to secure e-mail.
