Meltdown Studio’s Inaugural Insight Forum – Jewelry-Making Meets Cyber Security?!

Tonight, we kicked off something truly special—our very first Insight Forum at Meltdown Studio! And let us tell you, it was awesome. The room was buzzing with ideas, questions, and those "aha!" moments that only happen when you bring creative minds together.

For our inaugural event, we had the privilege of hearing from Randi Oliver, a Senior Solutions Architect with over 15 years in tech and a deep focus on identity security. Randi shared essential tips on staying safe online—especially for artists, entrepreneurs, and small business owners.

Here are some key takeaways from the night:

🔹 Your digital identity is like your most valuable piece of jewelry – unique, personal, and worth protecting.

🔹 Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a game-changer. Adding an extra layer of security can prevent cyber threats before they even start.

🔹 Beware of scams and phishing attempts! Just like spotting a fake gemstone, learning to recognize fraudulent emails and messages can save you from disaster.

Insight Forum: A New Community Conversation

The Insight Forum is Meltdown Studio’s new monthly meetup series, where we go beyond jewelry-making to dive into business, creativity, mentorship, and life as an artist. Each month, we’ll bring in industry experts and professionals to share their insights and experiences—sparking conversations that inspire and empower.
