United Way “Protecting Your Identity Online”
Nashua, NH – The United Way of Greater Nashua, through its Tech Connect United program, is hosting a free public workshop, “Protecting Your Identity Online,” designed to help community members safeguard their digital identities. This event will take place on Wednesday, November 20th, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Nashua Public Library, located at 2 Court Street, Nashua, NH.

Topics covered will include:
- Best practices for password security and management
- Recognizing phishing, spam, and other digital threats
