Cyber Aware is the government’s advice on how to stay secure online.
Online Self-Directed Learning
Free
Led by: National Cyber Security Centre
Description
From banking to shopping, and streaming to social media, people are spending more time than ever online.
This means more opportunities for hackers to carry out cyber attacks. They often do this by targeting people and businesses using:
- email and website scams
- malware – software that can damage your device or let a hacker in
If hackers get into your device or accounts, they could access your money, your personal information, or information about your business.
