Gus Andrews

**Gus Andrews** has a background that spans hacking, education, and software usability. She is currently working with Theorem Media on CyberNation, a multimedia public education project about digital security. Her book *Keep Calm and Log On* (MIT Press, 2020) aims to help everyday people survive the digital revolution without getting trampled. Over the past decade, Gus has improved everyday users' understanding of digital security through her work at the Open Internet Tools Project, Simply Secure, and reviving the Security in a Box guide for Front Line Defenders. Her work on open source encryption tools informed policy at the EFF and the U.S. State Department. She has been a regularly invited speaker at the Army Cyber Institute at West Point (improbably, because she created *The Media Show*, a YouTube series teaching media literacy using snarky puppets). Gus is a former panelist on the hacker radio show *Off The Hook* and a former organizer for HOPE.
