You’re at the right place to understand the dangers of living online in the modern age. The dangers on our internet are real and important to protect against. This can be intimidating, but it shouldn’t be and can even make life online easier.
I created this simple lesson plan to help you live a safer digital life. Even doing the first lesson, which will only take 10 minutes, can get you substantial security gains. I come at this from a perspective of having managed software teams delivering enterprise-grade software to multi-national corporations with a focus on security, and having assessed and observed poor security practices in those organizations. I have also long seen how people walk around with a false sense of security and I am genuinely concerned for their well-being.
These lessons are for two audiences:
- If you don’t know much about security, but want to be safer and don’t know where to start.
- If you’re a techie and scared about the safety of your loved ones, and want a helpful lesson plan to guide you through making them safer.
Let's get started with Why Should I Care?
