Cyber Safety workshop for school children in Chandigarh

Fifty-five percent off children on social media share their passwords with others making them vulnerable to cyber crimes, said cybersecurity expert Vibhu Agarwal of Connect Broadband at a Rotary workshop organized at Ajit Karam Singh International Public School, Sector 45, Smart School in Chandigarh, on 18th April.  

With growing usage of mobile phones in every home, infants and children are getting easy access to the internet content which is scary, said school principal Jasmine Kalra. 

The cybersecurity workshop and the quiz were organized by Rotary Club Chandigarh, and Connect Broadband as a part of its social responsibility initiative to sensitize children against cybercrime.

Later, in the Intra School NetChamp Quiz Jatin Dahiya and Pranshul of Class X A ,  won the first prize, and would now be eligible to participate in the city-round as well as the grand finale next month.

Connect Broadband has already reached out to over 10,000 children in almost 43 schools of Chandigarh and Punjab to generate awareness and protect them from online stalkers, hackers and fraudsters.
