Tech Security in an Insecure World
Webinar
An offering from Sequoia Samanavaya, featuring Jonah Silas
📅 Early May | ⏱ 75 minutes | 💻 On Zoom
Staying secure online is hard. Feeling secure in an insecure world is harder. Let's talk about both.
Concerns about data leaks, scams, misuse of information, and digital manipulation were already pressing — and they've only intensified as Big Tech and government interests have grown harder to disentangle.
Many individuals and organizations feel the pressure to act. And yet — the time, resources, and know-how to address it adequately often feel out of reach.
But here's what rarely gets said: the anxiety around tech security isn't only about technology.
It raises existential and spiritual questions too. What does it mean to seek safety in a world that is not, actually, safe? What are the real promises — and real limits — of "risk management"? What do we believe, often without saying it, about consent, communication, and trust?
This webinar holds both.
What We'll Cover
In 75 minutes, you'll come away with:
An overarching framework for thinking about tech security — practically and metaphysical.
4–5 concrete things every organization or individual can do right now
Honest conversation about common mistakes and misconceptions (including the things small nonprofits and businesses simply cannot do alone — and why that's okay)
Space to bring your real questions
Stories, sacred touchstones, and grounding from the natural world woven throughout
This Webinar Is For You If…
You work in or lead a values-aligned organization, small nonprofit, or purpose-driven business
You're actively using technology and feel some version of "I know we should be doing more about this"
You appreciate that ecological, liberatory, and spiritual frameworks belong in the conversation about digital tools — not outside it
You're part of an anticipatory community navigating a changing world and want to do so with more clarity and less fear
Note: This webinar is not primarily focused on AI — though we may touch on it. There's foundational ground to cover first.

About This Offering
This webinar is hosted by Rev. Sara Jolena Wolcott of Sequoia Samanvaya and features Jonah Silas, who brings 25 years of experience working at the intersections of technology, security, and social movements.
True to Sequoia Samanvaya's ongoing work in ReMembering and ReEnchanting, this space intentionally weaves together the eco-spiritual and the practical — stories, metaphors, and wisdom traditions alongside real-world frameworks and tools.
You can expect a conversation that moves fluidly between the sacred and the concrete, because that's exactly where most of us actually live.
