Safety Net's Cybersecurity Course

Welcome to the first chapter of Safety Net’s Cyber Security course! In this introductory module, we will explore what cyber security really is. When navigating the digital world, it is key to understand the potential risks that exist and prepare ourselves with the knowledge and skills to keep ourselves and our information safe. 

 

Cyber threats come in many forms, ranging from viruses and ransomware to phishing scams and identity theft. Being aware of these threats is the first step in safeguarding our digital well-being. By recognizing the risks, we can adopt proactive measures to stay one step ahead of cybercriminals.

 

It is really important to make sure you are making responsible choices, as it encompasses how we interact with others, the information we share, and the choices we make online. It involves respecting the privacy and rights of others, being mindful of the consequences of our actions, and understanding the impact they can have on ourselves and those around us.
