This project involved completing cybersecurity training to understand how cybersecurity works, along with its pros and cons. Through this process I gained knowledge about online security and earned a cybersecurity certificate.
Through my cyber security training I learned how common online threats like identity theft, fraud, phishing scams, spoofing, malware, and ransomware can happen through everyday things like emails, links, and fake websites. I also learned why privacy matters and how quickly personal information can be stolen if you reuse passwords or share too much online. Overall, this certificate helped me understand how to spot red flags my accounts, and be more careful with what I click and what I share.
