This class will focus on what you need to know to stay safe in an increasingly digital world. Topics to be covered include identifying and avoiding spam, scams, ripoffs and invasions of privacy, preventing hackers from taking over your device, protection against viruses and other malware, using backups to avoid data loss, and keeping your private information out of the wrong hands both before and after your device reaches the end of its life. While much of the discussion will involve Windows PCs, most of the concepts involved also apply to Apple computers, and Android/iOS phones, tablets and other devices.
