What is Online Safety?

user’s personal safety and security risks
to private information and property
associated with using the internet, and
the self-protection from computer crime
in general.
• Online/internet safety is a growing
concern for both children and adults.
• Several crimes are committed because of
the internet
Common concerns regarding safety on the
internet include:
• Malicious users
• Websites and softwares
• Inflammatory content
• Online predation, etc.
Personal safety
▪ The growth of the internet gave rise to
many important services accessible to
anyone with a connection.
▪ While malicious users often use the
internet for personal gain, this may not be
limited to financial/material gain.
▪ This is especially a concern to parents and
children, as children are often targets of
these malicious users.
Common Threats to Personal Safety:
❑ Cyberstalking - to stalk or harass an individual, a
group of individuals, or an organization.
❑ Cyberbullying - An extension of bullying outside
the internet, and may take form in many different
ways. (i.e: releasing an image of the user without
his or her consent).

underage minor into inappropriate sexual
relationships through the internet.
❑ Obscene Content - various websites on the
internet contain material that some deem
offensive, distasteful or explicit, which may often
be not of the user's liking.
Tips to Stay Safe Online
1. Be mindful of what you share online and what site you share it to.

your profile private, search engines will not be able to scan your profile.

Internet Threats
Here are some of the threats you should be aware of when using the Internet:
Malware
or malicious software, is any

program or file that is harmful to a
computer user.
Types of Malware
• Virus - a malicious program designed to replicate itself and transfer from
one computer to another (internet, local networks, FDs, CDs, etc.)
• Worm - a malicious program that transfers from one computer to another
by any type of means.
• Ex. ILOVEYOU Worm - The malware originated in the Pandacan
neighborhood of Manila in the Philippines on May 5, 2000.
• Trojan - a malicious program that disguises as a useful program but once
downloaded or installed, leaves your PC unprotected and allows hackers to
get your information.
Malware
• Spyware - a program that runs in the background without you knowing it
(thus called “spy”). It has the ability to monitor what you are currently doing
and typing through keylogging.
• Ex. Keylogger – used to record keystrokes done by the user. This is done
to steal their password or any other sensitive information. The key logger
software typically uses log file to store its recording.
• Adware - a program designed to send you advertisements, mostly as pop-
ups.
• Ransomware - or ransom software is a type of malicious software from
cryptovirology that threatens to publish the victim's data or perpetually
block access to it unless a ransom is paid.
Spam
An unwanted email mostly from

bots or advertisers. It can be used to
send malware.
Phishing
Its goal is to acquire sensitive personal

information like passwords and credit
card details. This is done by sending you
an e-mail that will direct the user to visit a
fake website and be asked to update
his/her username, password, credit card
or personal information.

posted it to pull it down or report it as inappropriate.
