Stay Safe Online: A Friendly Cybersecurity Session for Seniors

Strathbogie Shire Council invites you to a relaxed and practical session all about staying safe online. Designed especially for older Australians, this workshop will guide you through the basics of cybersecurity in a simple, easy-to-understand way.

We’ll cover everyday topics like:

Creating strong, memorable passwords
Spotting scam emails and text messages
Browsing the internet safely
Protecting your personal information on social media
Keeping your online banking secure

You’ll also learn why it’s important to keep your devices up to date, how to back up your data, and where to go for trusted help — like Scamwatch and the Australian Cyber Security Centre.

The goal is to help you feel more confident online, reduce the risk of scams, and give you practical tips you can start using straight away.
