Digital Security (Self-Protection)

 

Digital Security refers to taking precautions to protect our digital devices, our digital information, and ourselves. Some people on the internet are out to get you or your information. This is scary, but it is true. It is important to take precautions to keep yourself and your information safe. Some methods that people use to steal your information include creating viruses and hacking into your computer. There are ways to protect yourself, though.


Examples of using Digital Security (Self-Protection) could include: Installing virus protection to keep your computer from getting a virus, and backing up any data that you have saved to your computer to another device.
