Surfing the Web

The Surfing the Web module covers topics on: safe web surfing, secure websites, and how to identify and avoid malicious sites and links.

The World Wide Web is a vast resource for information and entertainment, but you may come across a number of online threats while surfing. You can practice safe browsing habits and minimize the risk of online attacks.

Not even reputable websites are always safe. At some point, you’ve probably given personal information to a social network, an online retailer, or a discussion board, such as: your name, payment Information, contacts, password, and more.If an organization’s server is compromised all of this information is vulnerable.
