Hi Geeks,

I'm Dipak Parmar, Club Leader at Mozilla Club Patan, a professional cyber-security enthusiast and a Mozillian who really gets excited when gets opportunity to work on any kind of project in this domain, as I begin my journey with Mozilla community I have been with them from past 2 years. I met the Mozilla Gujarat team at MakerFest 2016 Ahmedabad.

The year after I found "the hacker meetup" event is happening in the city and I'm interested to learn more about cyber security and get in touch with Viral Parmar CEO of ComExpo Cyber Security and Mozillian Rep. His Project LogOut - Cyber Awareness Campaign is selected by the Mozilla. So when I found out that “Viral Parmar” was organizing a cyber-awareness conference (LOGOUT Gujarat’s 1st Cyber Awareness Conference) in Ahmedabad, I applied to be a part of working team so that I could get involved and contribute to what I am positive will become an important privacy and cybersecurity conference over time. That was my first ever biggest cyber Security conference that I attended.


And the year after that I was continuously in touch with the Mozilla Gujarat community members Mehul Patel and Viral Parmar from whom I learned many things and further contributed to community.

Being inspired by them I also applied for it and after a few days I got a call telling me that I was selected by LOGOUT as a core team member. That was the best news i got on that day, I felt so much excited because i got chance to work in World's Biggest Cyber Awareness Campaign and also i am contributing in Mozilla Open source community.


Adding on, one fine day we got a call from Viral Parmar sir that today evening we have a meeting of core team members to decide all the works and planning about this Logout conference, what are the dates to be finalized and what work needs to be done to make this conference successful and aware more people about cyber security. We started working on planning for our first big cyber awareness conference where we could reach maximum people at one place in first week of November 2017. We finalized 22 January 2018 date for the event.

How can they secure their online privacy and be online safe. As a part of his LogOut Campaign We Lead 2 Major Districts of North Gujarat Patan & Banaskantha. We Organized Seminars & Workshop events at Schools and Colleges of this districts. We delivered the talk on cyber security, how the India is being digital and in the world of Internet and how the Online Privacy is important to us. We also shared some case studies with participants, so they could understand how the cyber frauds are happening with people due to lack of awareness in using the internet carefully. Specially, we targeted the school students to aware them about privacy and safe Open internet as they are the ones who are most vulnerable to these types of stuff.
