Jan 11

Journal - What is the importance of online safety and protecting your information? What do you do to protect yourself online? Share an experience you or someone you know has had with online safety.

I believe that protecting online information is one of the most important things that someone who constantly uses a computer can do. Whether it's a small website, Facebook or twitter account, or even your credit card number, you must make it priority # 1. Here are some tips to keep trolls off your stuff.  

  • Make a password that is either long, or hard to guess 
  • Throw in some capitals, numbers, or even misspellings to certify protection (11PasssweRd329)
  • Log off your computer when you are done
  • Don't give any information (when it comes to addresses, use the school address)
