Get Online Week is Good Things’ national campaign to close the digital divide. It supports people to feel safer and more confident online so no one is left behind.
Between 19-25 October, hundreds of fun, local digital skills events will be held in communities across Australia to help everyone get online.
Southern New England Landcare is presenting a cyber security workshop 'Cheques are Going, Online Banking is Growing - Staying Safe and Savvy Online'.
As more services move online and cheques are phased out, understanding how to stay safe in the digital world has never been more important.
Join us for a practical and relaxed morning focused on building your confidence online and protecting yourself from cyber threats.
We'll cover:
- Setting up multi-factor authentication (MFA)
- Why software and device updates should be installed promptly
- Creating strong, unique passphrases
- Recognising and reporting phishing scams
- Tips for safer online banking and digital transactions
With online banking becoming the norm and fewer businesses accepting cheques, now is the perfect time to learn the skills and security measures that can help keep your information and money safe.
After a short presentation, enjoy morning tea and the opportunity for one-on-one support. Bring along your phone, tablet or laptop and our team will be available to help you set up security features and answer any online safety questions you may have.
This friendly, hands-on workshop is designed to help you navigate the digital world with confidence.
