When it comes to computer security, people are the gaping hole for hackers to exploit. Believe it or not, pretty sophisticated technologies exist to protect our data.

When high school phenomenon Thon Maker announced last week that he would enter the 2016 NBA Draft, IU basketball fans’ were forced to accept the reality of what they feared all along.
