National Cyber Security Awareness Week June 6 - 11, 2010

The theme for this year's National Cyber Security Awareness Week is Protect Yourself Online.
Key messages and activities during the Week will put the spotlight on the the growing number of devices that we all now use to access the Internet, our increasing use of WiFi, the more complex range of transactions we do online, and as the result, our need for better security and more care about the information we share online about ourselves and others.
For further information about some simple things people can do to protect themselves online, see Stay Smart Online.

Think Before You Post

Safer Internet Day 2010 is an international event which aims to raise awareness about the safe and responsible use of online technologies - especially amongst children and young people. Safer Internet Day 2010 is on Tuesday 9th February with the theme being 'Think Before You Post'.

Think Before You Post is an important message for children and young people, both for their Internet and mobile phone use. A simple technique of stopping to think about the consequences before sending or posting information may help to reduce negative experiences.

For more information and tips about the sharing information that could be seen by those other than people that you know go to the Australian Government's Cybersmart site.

Your digital footprint could be forever.
