Heard of Juice Jacking?


Major media sources recently reported on a new cybersecurity threat known as juice jacking. According to the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), juice jacking is possible when hackers compromise public USB charging ports like those found in airports, hotels, and coffee shops. Criminals can install malicious devices or software on any public USB port, enabling these bad actors to:

  • Access your device’s private data including contacts, passwords, or digitally stored credit card info
  • Insert malware onto your smartphone or tablet that can lock your device, spy on your activities, and steal your credentials
To combat this, the FCC recommends traveling with and using only your own portable battery and charging cables.  Check out some of our favorite branded power banks here!

The Benefits of Eco-Friendly Wheat Straw Swag

 


Wheat straw is an eco-friendly, sustainable alternative to solid plastic.  It's better for the environment, but also sturdy and aesthetically pleasing!  Here are four key benefits to wheat straw promotional products:


1. Wheat straw is lightweight and durable

2. Wheat straw is a normal byproduct of harvesting wheat, and it normally ends up being discarded.  Using wheat straw in innovative ways to make promotional products and other items eliminates waste and provides a secondary source of revenue for farmers.  All-in-all, it helps reduce the carbon footprint from farming wheat.

3. Manufacturing wheat straw does not use fossil fuels, so it's a sustainable choice.

4. Promotional products made from wheat straw are BPA free, food grade and gluten free, so they're completely safe and pose no risk of allergic reactions.


Ready to make a statement with eco-friendly wheat straw swag?   Check out some of our favorite wheat straw promotional products, and contact Red Canoe Promotions Denver today to see your logo on any of them!
