Hello and welcome to Tech Talk LIVE presented by PC Tech Rescue! First order of business tonight was a small discussion into the latest (and the lowest form of) scam riding the coat tails of the recent tragedy in Nepal. Please keep a vigilant eye on emails and other social engineering tactics using the Nepal earthquake as a catalyst to get you to dump your money into a scam. Then a discussion and help segment surfaced on the difference between backing up and making a disc image and the benefits of a disc image. You can send us your computer questions to techtalk@qybradionetwork.com or leave them on our Facebook Page or voice mail at (443) 836-0171.
On our regular weekly segment, we De-Geeked IoT or Internet of Things. IoT is a scenario in which objects, animals or people are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.
