6. What is Cyber
Hygiene?
•Cyber hygiene is about training
yourself to form good habits around
cybersecurity so that you can stay
ahead of cyber threats and online
security issues. Cyber hygiene is
sometimes compared to personal
hygiene – in that both are
precautionary processes carried out
regularly to ensure health and
wellbeing. - Kaspersky

Take a moment to consider
who in your life may be
vulnerable to cyber attacks?

13. The Privacy
Paradox
The privacy paradox isa dichotomy
in how a person intends to protect
their online privacy versus how they
actually behave online — and how
they don't protect their information
online. This is usually because of an
unwillingness to break convenient
habits or behaviours. - Norton
