It looks like my main concerns or topics were staying safe when using any social media, keeping kids safe on the web, the importance of education, staying educated and privacy concerns.  Any one of these topics are crucial to a free and safe society.  In order for us to keep ourselves out of harm’s way, we first need to know what to look out for, how to detect it, how to fix it and what NOT to do.  But the biggest is to STAY INFORMED!!  Keep reading books and articles that explain the importance of network and personal security, take a class, talk to a friend or if you know good information, pass it along and help out your brethren. 

Keep your personal data just that… PERSONAL. Never willingly give it out unless you are absolutely sure who you are dealing with and what the impact will be.


I used several sources for my blogs including CNET.com, PCWorld, McClatchy report, Informationweek.com, homelandsecuritynewswire.com, SplashData.com, McAfee as well as others.  All of these sites have a common interest and goal and that is to educate and give us information about certain security issues and needs.  Hey just like one of my blog concerns…. EDUCATING YOURSELF…
