Cybersecurity 101 – NOVA Labs | PBS.org

Here is a very well done 3 minute 38 second video that explains Cybersecurity on the internet.  The video is from NOVA Labs | PBS.org.

At NOVA’s website, in their Cybersecurity Lab, you can play a game where you are one of the people, protecting a company that is the target of increasingly sophisticated cyber attacks. You must continuously strengthen your defenses in order to thwart these attackers. You will do this by completing challenges that will give you basic coding abilities, help you spot scams designed to trick you into giving up your secrets, and teach you how passwords are cracked and strengthened[1]. This is both a fun and educational investment of a few minutes of time, and might make you and your computer safer on internet.
