An ever-greater number of people spend a large amount of time online particularly during the pandemic when lockdown orders were in place and stay-at-home orders basically forced us to do the things we used to do face-to-face such as shopping for groceries, going to school, attending funerals, joining meetings, talking to family and friends and moving them online. Bad actors have likewise moved their activities online and there is a greater need to be aware of what they do and how to prevent us from falling victim to their bad intentions.
In this module we will learn about what cybersafety is, learn about the people who make the Internet unsafe, what can happen when we don’t take steps to protect ourselves online, then we will tackle how to stay safe and look at tips on how to prevent cyberattacks.
