In partnership with Age Scotland, CyberScotland is hosting an hour webinar to help older people keep themselves safe from online scams.
Being online makes life easier in many ways, but it also comes with the risk of scams and fraud. Opportunist criminals are taking advantage of people using laptops, phones, and tablets more than ever before. These scams can lead to accounts being hacked.
There are ways that you can stay protected online and it is easier than you might think.
CyberScotland’s new ‘DIGI Ken?’ TV adverts shows you the steps to take to stay secure online.
In this webinar, we’ll:
- Play the TV adverts and talk you through this advice
- Share advice for creating strong passwords that are easy to remember
- Show you how to set up an extra security feature to protect you from potential scammers.
- Explain the importance of keeping your device’s software up-to-date
You don’t need any technical knowledge to take part.
Come along and take steps to protect yourself online!
