    Study Notes

    Cyber Security Practices

    Data Breaches

    • A data breach is when someone unauthorized gets access to our private information, like names, addresses, or passwords.
    • Data breaches can happen when we click on bad links, download wrong apps, or share secrets with strangers online.

    Avoiding Data Breaches

    • We should create strong, unique passwords for each account and keep them secret.
    • Don't share personal info with strangers online, and be careful when clicking on links or downloading apps.
    • Keeping our devices and apps up-to-date with the latest security patches helps protect against data breaches.

    What to Do if a Data Breach Occurs

    • If we think our information was stolen, we should tell a trusted adult, like a parent or teacher.
    • We should change our passwords and keep a close eye on our accounts for any suspicious activity.

    Digital Backups

    • A digital backup is a copy of our important files and information, stored safely in another place.
    • Digital backups are important because they can help us get our files back if something bad happens to our devices or accounts.
    • We can store digital backups on external hard drives, cloud storage, or even a USB flash drive.
