In our technology-driven world, we depend on the internet to carry out our day-to-day activities. However, with this convenience comes the risk of cyber attacks that pose a threat to our personal security.
Cyber criminals are increasingly using malware, fake support pop-ups, and phishing emails, & more to exploit unsuspecting computer users. As a Mac user, it's essential that you're aware of these risks & have a plan to stay safe when venturing into cyberspace.
This class serves as an excellent resource for Mac users seeking to better safeguard themselves online. Expert instructor, Jamie ‘jMac’ Pollock will guide you through the latest security measures and provide you with proven strategies for defending against modern-day threats.
In this course you’ll get answers to questions such as:

We’ll have a frank discussion focusing on the most common security concerns, & I’ll provide practical how-to solutions to defend yourself from modern day threats. By enrolling in this class, you’ll also get my “How to Not Get Scammed Online” guide with 8 helpful rules-of-thumb to help you remember how to browse the internet safely.
Listen. I field panicked phone calls all the time from people who have been taken advantage of online & I hate it. It’s not right, and I don’t want that to happen to you.
