Digital Safety
Learn how to recognize digital threats, protect your information, and make safer decisions online — one simple lesson at a time.
Digital Safety Starts With Knowing What to Look For
A text appears to come from your bank. A family member suddenly asks for money. A phone call looks legitimate. A voice, photo, or video seems completely real.
How do you know what you can trust?
The Digital Safety Series was created for everyday people who use smartphones, computers, email, social media, online banking, and other digital services — but may never have been taught how to protect themselves in today’s rapidly changing digital world.
Introduction to the Digital Safety Series
You Don't Need to Be a Computer Expert
Digital safety is about learning enough to recognize when something doesn't look right — and knowing when to stop, check, and protect yourself before you click, send, pay, download, or share.
What We'll Learn Together
We start with the basics and build from there. No complicated technical language. No assumptions that you already know how any of this works.

We Won't Just Tell You What to Do. We'll Show You How.
When we tell you to check a link, we'll show you what to look for. When we talk about two-factor authentication, we'll explain what it is and how it works. When we discuss scams, we'll show you the warning signs. Every lesson is designed to build your knowledge step by step.
Learn. Recognize. Protect.
Technology will keep changing — and so will the ways people try to deceive us. You don't have to become a cybersecurity expert. You just need to know what to look for, what questions to ask, and when to stop before you click, send, pay, or share.
