Learning development Sunday, 02 December 2018 Mobile phones that can connect to the internet are vulnerable to the same risks as computers. Viruses and malicious code can infect your phone and allow someone else to make calls using your account. Be wary of text messages that ask you for personal details like your password or ask you to visit a particular website. Bluetooth allows users to exchange files and download to and from a computer. While this technology is very useful, it is also quite risky. Think carefully about where you use Bluetooth. Use it in hidden mode so it will still work with your twinned devices but is hidden from other devices. When you have finished, disable Bluetooth to prevent bluejacking. Sunday, 02 December 2018

Learning development Sunday, 02 December 2018 Ensure good virus protection Viruses are programs that can do a lot of damage – from deleting or changing data to taking control of your computer, creating a so-called zombie computer. Sometimes a user does not even know their computer is infected with a virus. Trojans are a particularly nasty form of virus. They can be hidden inside another program and infect your system when the other program is installed. Trojan viruses can do many things, including capturing keystrokes on your computer as you type.

Independent Task Choose one of the following internet services: shopping, gaming or social networking and explain how you can stay safe while online. Write up your explanation in your booklet Secure shopping Shopping over the internet is becoming more and more popular. Criminals try and exploit security weaknesses by intercepting money transfers in order to steal money. No one should enter their credit card details into a website form unless it has the secure payment padlock symbol clearly displayed. This is usually displayed on the bottom right bar of your browser window, and the letter ‘s’ usually appears in the top ‘URL’ address bar (see above). Consoles – fun and games? Most games consoles connect to the internet and interact with other people via online games. Most online players you interact with will be friends – some, however, will be strangers. Some adults pretend to be friendly to get close to teenagers to draw them into potentially dangerous situations. This is called grooming – it could take place over many months. Never agree to receive anything from other game-players in return for demands that make you feel uncomfortable. Your social network There are a variety of social networks such as Bebo, MySpace and Facebook. Make sure you keep your passwords safe and only allow invited friends to access your network. There are lots of incidents where people have accessed someone else's account, threatening to delete their entire account unless they comply with real-life requests. This is completely unacceptable and must be urgently reported to the network administrator and discussed with your parents or guardians. Most sites have an email address called abuse@.
