Semalt Expert – How To Make Your Kids Understand And Avoid Malware

1. 23.05.2018 Semalt Expert – How To Make Your Kids Understand And Avoid Malware We are aware of the fact that most of the schools do not teach children how to stay safe on the internet and how to avoid malware and viruses. Perhaps, it is important to understand the signi?cance of information technology in our lives and to be able to troubleshoot technology-related problems. For this, we would have to teach the basics to our children. Otherwise, there is no chance for us to achieve success. Ryan Johnson, the leading expert from Semalt, shares his experience and speci?es some handy tips for your children to stay safe on the internet. How our children spend time on the internet First of all, we should be familiar with how our children spend time on the web. Another question is how can we help them understand malware and how to get rid of it. We can help them develop an understanding of the malware and viruses by providing them with regular assignments. It is the duty of our tutors to provide children with computer-related assignments and help them solve the questions. https://rankexperience.com/articles/article1281.html 1/2

2. 23.05.2018 Teaching children with relevant videos A large number of videos on computer viruses are available on the internet. It is true that most of the videos are geared towards adults, but that doesn't mean our children cannot get bene?ts from them. Many YouTube videos tell people a lot about how to adjust their security settings and how to download user-friendly apps and games on a regular basis. Thus, it is the duty of our parents and teachers to get children useful videos based on their class level and mental capabilities. Most recently, I found several news pieces covering internet threats. We can share those pieces with our children too so that they can read and learn new things. PPT presentations Yes, it is true that I use PPT presentations to teach my children a lot about only security and safety. The very ?rst thing is to get kids a lot of videos and PPT presentations about malware and viruses and how to get rid of them. Once they have gone through the provided material, the next step is to ask some questions to check if they have learned all the basics or not. People who believe that their kids are safe while sur?ng the internet or using social media are making a big mistake. There are a lot of things that need our attention, and of course, we should transfer knowledge to our little ones for their safe and secure future. For children below seven, we can get versions of picture books that are related to viruses and malware. Through these books, we can teach them how to prepare for future and how to ensure their safety on the internet. Conclusion When it comes to viruses and malware, both adults and children need to learn the basics. For everyone, online security is one of the major concerns these days. If we don't pay attention to the antivirus software and anti- malware programs, we would be at risk of losing all our data and sensitive ?les. The same thing should be taught to our children. While using social media, they should make sure that their pro?les and passwords are not hacked. So, teachers should arrange extra classes for children to deliver lectures on malware and viruses. https://rankexperience.com/articles/article1281.html 2/2
