If you have ever made an account with a website or app, there is a risk that your data could end up in the hands of cyber criminals. Even if you do everything right, cyber criminals might be able to hack into the website or app and steal your data this way. This session looks at how you can reduce the risk of being involved in a data breach, and what to do if you are. Putting in place some simple actions now can make a big difference when it comes to being resilient in the face of a data breach. Whether you are just beginning on your digital learning journey, or you just want to refresh your knowledge, this session has all you need to ensure you can cope in a data breach. There will be a demonstration of some helpful digital tools, and plenty of time for questions.
