What is Get Safe Online?

Get Safe Online is the UK’s national Internet security awareness campaign for the general public, micro and small businesses. The campaign is a joint initiative between HM government, the Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA), and private sector sponsors from the worlds of technology, retail and finance. The campaign website www.getsafeonline.org is the definitive source of free, unbiased, current information and advice about how to keep safe and secure online.

Why is it important?

The Internet is a fantastic resource for the general public and business. However, given the risk of crime perpetrated on the Internet – for example identity theft, email and website scams and computer hacking – it is vital that the general public have the information they need to protect themselves and their devices when online.
