CYBERSAFETY CHAMPIONS

BECOME #UNHACKABLE

Our nonprofit organization was created to educate communities, families, youth, seniors and other vulnerable sector individuals. Through our education, initiatives and resources we empower individuals and communities to prevent cybercrime victimization , detect cyber abuses and respond to cyber fraud and privacy invasions.

education

Most people understand the importance of being safe online, but few know how to actually go about doing it. We offer a variety of workshops, courses, and training videos that can help people of all ages learn about online safety. From dealing with online bullying to protecting your information and banking safely online, we cover it all. We also create custom curriculum for community groups, colleges and universities, school boards, and municipalities.

initiatives

We are constantly inundated with news of identity theft, cybercrime, and data breaches. It seems like hardly a day goes by without another headline about some new way that hackers have found to exploit our personal information.  Our Initiatives like KnowledgeWise, KnowledgeConnect, Safer Internet Day, CyberCrimeFighters, Student Data Protection Day and many more, help youth and seniors stay safe online.

Resources

Protect yourself and your family with our cybersafety resources. Just Hang Up, Just Delete It, and Malware Symptoms are just three of our free resources that offer practical advice on how to stay safe online. Our library of tip sheets has been translated into multiple languages including Tamil, Tagalog, and Chinese. We will also custom create resource material for community groups, colleges and universities, school boards, and municipalities.
