Why do we need Own Your Online?
Online threats are becoming increasingly prevalent and sophisticated, with over half of New Zealanders experiencing an online threat in the last six months.¹
Most of us take care of the things we value in life – we lock our doors, we put our seatbelts on, and we protect our loved ones – but we don’t always apply the same careful protection to our online lives.
Own Your Online aims to simplify online security, and provides relatable ‘how to’ guides, resources and information to help New Zealanders and small to medium businesses:
- understand the most common online risks and threats,
- know how to stay protected against online threats,
- check to see if something's a scam, and
- get help when targeted by an attack online.
