Clearly the Internet can be a dangerous place. Knowledge is power however, and in that vein and in recognition of National Cyber Security Awareness Month, CyberPatrol (Parental Controls) has just launched an Online Safety Video Series.
The aim of the series of brief family-oriented lessons is to provide parents, educators and others with quick and accessible advice on how to protect children from predators, cyber bullies, inappropriate material and other online threats.
The first video posted today - http://www.cyberpatrol.com/safetyseries.asp - gives parents advice on having a conversation about Internet Safety with the entire family. Additional videos will be released during the month of October.
The series was produced with and is presented by internationally known Internet Safety and Technology expert and author Linda Criddle, President of LOOKBOTHWAYS, Inc., a corporation that provides consulting to state and national governments, law enforcement agencies and other organizations committed to promoting online safety.
