Stay safe online and feel confident doing it! If the online world sometimes feels confusing, fast‑moving, or a little risky, you’re not alone. This session helps you cut through the noise and understand what’s really going on behind the social networks you use every day such as Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Twitter (X), in a way that feels clear, calm, and manageable.
We’ll explore common security risks across phones, tablets, and computers, look at real‑world examples of online scams, and walk through simple, practical steps you can take to protect yourself every day.
