Recommendations to ensure cybersafety: The rollout of NBN will increase the amount of information on line and on line only. Resources are needed to ensure all senior Australians have affordable access to the internet at home. Universal, affordable access to internet training and support needs to be provided in accordance with adult literacy principles. Australia needs a national policy on later life learning with increased resources Older Australians need to be integrally connected into the fabric of society through affordable social engagement opportunities with appropriate transport options Obligations should be placed on entities such as banks and utilities providers to protect customers from phishing practices.
