Online security for kids: Parents play key role in education

Many experts have said that children using internet-connected mobile devices bring numerous benefits. According to Trần Đăng Khoa, Deputy Director of the Department of Information Security, children are most vulnerable to online social risks from the ages of nine to 13. Therefore, to help students gain more skills in information security, the Department of Information Security has collaborated with schools and various organisations to organise the Student Internet Safety Competition. On the website, features such as "Resources" provide materials to enhance awareness, skills, and experience in protecting children online. Recently, the Department of Information Security has tested the "Tool" and "Report Abuse" features to assist users in checking unsafe links.
