Now that you know the threats, it’s time to roll up your digital sleeves and get your cyber defences in order. This workshop is your starter kit for basic protection—the stuff that everyone should be doing but most people aren’t. We’ll cover the everyday habits and settings that create a strong security foundation, so you’re not walking around the internet like a target with your trousers down. No jargon. No scare tactics. Just straight-talking, step-by-step advice to help you lock things down without locking yourself out.
You’ll learn what makes a genuinely strong password (and no, “Password123” doesn’t count), how to use password managers without fear, and how to set up Multi-Factor Authentication properly—none of that half-baked stuff. We’ll also look at locking down your phone, laptop, tablet, and home router so hackers don’t just stroll in. You’ll find out why software updates matter, why antivirus isn’t enough anymore, and how to safely download apps and shop online without getting stung. And yes—we’ll teach you how to use public Wi-Fi without screaming “Take my data!” every time you open Instagram in Costa. Think of this workshop as your digital hygiene routine. Clean, tidy, and hacker-resistant.
