PREPARE TO PROTECT
Being protected when you go online is not
like preparing for battle!
Instead, it’s about taking some precautions and then keeping
your wits about you while you’re there. This means keeping
your personal information private, using passwords and
passcodes, and being aware of stranger danger. It also means
not falling for scams or fake websites and protecting your
digital devices against harmful programs and hackers.
Our phones, tablets, and computers are like personal
filing cabinets that carry around our private personal
information. If these digital devices are lost or stolen
we can lose not only our photos, music, and messages,
but also our access to our online accounts. This is
why protecting our digital devices with passcodes and
passwords is so important.
