Hi everybody. Welcome to the cyber
0:18
security and digital safety webinar. My
0:20
name is Ana.
0:24
Okay.
0:26
So before we get started, I just want to
0:27
give a little speaker introduction on
0:29
who I am. So my name is Anya. I'm a
0:31
junior at South Verside High School um
0:34
in coming Georgia with a strong passion
0:36
for STEM. So a little bit about me is
0:38
that I lead my school's hat club and I
0:40
run a nonprofit tutoring academy called
0:42
Inspire Academy. And it's really cool
0:44
really cool because I get to teach
0:46
students coding skills and STEM skills
0:48
like um Python, HTML and CSS,
0:52
JavaScript, and so many other skills. I
0:54
also teach like math and science and ELA
0:57
and I think it's just really nice and
0:58
I'm just super excited to help make tech
1:01
more fun and engaging for all of you
1:02
guys today.
1:05
So, why does digital safety matter to
1:07
teens? So, I think this is a very um
1:09
important issue and I want to touch on
1:10
this. So, teens are more online than
1:12
ever before now. um with online school,
1:16
shopping, social media, gaming,
1:19
searching for internships, um colleges,
1:22
college applications, job applications.
1:24
So, a single mistake in the digital
1:26
world like oversharing your information
1:28
or setting weak passwords can really
1:30
lead to serious problems like people
1:32
stealing your identity, having your
1:34
accounts hacked, and even harming your
1:36
reputation. So I think that staying
1:38
online in the online staying safe in the
1:40
online world is very crucial to protect
1:42
your privacy, your future and your
1:44
mental state.
1:46
So a fun fact is that every 39 seconds
1:49
there is a cyber attack. And I think if
1:51
you just think about that, that's very
1:53
crazy. Like every like 40 every 39
1:55
seconds someone is getting hacked or
1:57
they're going under a cyber attack. And
1:59
um another fun fact is a quote from Aba
2:02
Chit Nascar and it says no internet
2:04
connected technology is truly unhackable
2:07
and I think that's like really crazy
2:10
because like we sometimes we look at
2:12
technology and we're like oh there's no
2:13
way this can be hacked but like no like
2:15
no um I just want you to remember that
2:17
everything you post on the internet is
2:19
permanent. So whenever you're about to
2:21
post something if you think like oh
2:22
maybe I'm posting it like on a private
2:24
account or I'll just put it on YouTube
2:25
for a few hours and take it down like
2:27
no. Everything you post is permanent and
2:29
it adds to your digital footprint. So
2:31
please be careful.
2:33
So before so now let's talk about what
2:35
cyber security is. So what is cyber
2:37
security? Cyber security is the practice
2:40
of protecting your digital information,
2:42
your devices and your computer systems
2:43
from malicious online attacks and
2:45
hackers. So it's about staying safe
2:47
online every day in the digital world.
2:49
So some ways that we stay safe like on
2:51
the daily is we have account login, we
2:53
have p we have usernames and passwords.
2:55
We have something called MFA which is
2:57
multiffactor authentica authentication
3:00
and that's basically just multiple
3:01
factors we use to protect our login. So
3:04
when you're logging into an account
3:05
other than just entering your username
3:07
and password in you also enter in like
3:10
um other things like for example a
3:12
security question or touch ID or maybe
3:14
it'll send a text to your phone or a
3:17
like a link to your Gmail for you to log
3:19
in. We also try to use strong passwords
3:21
as much as possible and so much more.
3:24
Um, so your digital footprint. So your
3:26
digital footprint is your permanent
3:28
trail that's left behind when you use
3:29
the internet and your devices. So this
3:32
is what I was talking about a few
3:33
minutes ago. If you think that something
3:34
on the internet that you post isn't
3:36
permanent, that's not true because
3:38
whenever you're using any online um
3:41
whenever you're like doing any online
3:43
activity or you're connected to the
3:44
internet, you're leaving a trail of data
3:46
behind and that trail is what is your
3:48
digital footprint.
3:51
So here are some common online risks. So
3:55
some common online risks are fishing is
3:57
a very common online risk. And this is
