Cybersecuity Awareness Month

Cybersecuity Awareness Month

Ever heard your teen talk about tech and had no idea what they meant?

October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, so we're breaking down some of the tech jargon young people pick up through gaming, social media, coding, and online communities.

While an interest in technology is usually a positive thing, understanding the language they use can help parents spot when a conversation may be needed.

✅ Learn common tech terms
✅ Understand the potential risks
✅ Support positive digital skills development

If you're concerned about your child's online activity, support is available. Our Cyber Prevent programme offers free, confidential advice to help young people use their digital skills safely, responsibly, and within the law.
