Hey everyone! So this week’s topic was cyber security, and in such a modern era where almost everything is based online, cyber security can be a big issue. However, it doesn’t have to be! There are some simple was you can stay safe online, without going completely off grid.
In this module we also got to look at a video of a USF student who actually experienced identity theft through social media. It’s scary to think that something like this could happen to anyone of us at any point, and others won’t even notice it’s not real. From her story I learned that you can never be too carful online, and that identity theft can happen to anyone using the simplest of tools. It’s sobering.
With the information from the video I can inform others to take probation on social media, even if they think “it won’t happen to me”.
