CSA Open Days

March - 1,2 2014


Department of Computer Science and Automation (CSA) at Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore will be organizing the annual 'Open Days' on the occasion of IISc founder's day.


In the stall, there is mainly focus on the issue of Mass Surveillance that has been brought to forefront by revelations of various projects of NSA by Edward Snowden. We would like to show case tools which users can use to ensure their privacy while using internet.

A nice compilation of these tools is already present in the website

We plan to have an installation booth at the stall so that participants can bring their laptops and our volunteers can actually help them install these tools.

Apart from this, on the open hardware aspect, we would also want to showcase of the projects our students are doing using Arduino and Raspberry Pi.

This event is govern by the FSMK (Free Software Movement Karnataka).
