ISLAMABAD: After detection of 4.9 billion cyberattacks across the globe, a leading cyber security company has offered free online course on basic cyber hygiene.

Kaspersky has launched a new free online course on basic cyberhygiene, crucial for everyone who uses the internet and gadgets on a daily basis, but might lack knowledge of the cyber risks involved. The open course on digital literacy is designed for a wide audience, regardless of age or occupation, and covers the main issues of digital security.

In the course, Kaspersky experts explain, in simple and clear language, how to safely live your online life and protect yourself and your loved ones from cyberthreats.

Today, people average nearly seven hours of online time daily, surfing the web and using gadgets, but they also leave enormous amounts of personal information online and regularly encounter traps left by scammers. In fact, in 2024 alone, Kaspersky detected 4.9 billion cyberattacks worldwide. Considering this constant rise in phishing and scam schemes, basic information security skills are becoming a necessity to keep peace of mind in such a high-risk environment.

In the video lessons, Kaspersky experts explained to participants how to protect personal data from intruders, safely use email, social networks, and other applications, and make purchases in online stores. Participants will learn how to recognize phone fraud, phishing, and other cyberthreats. A separate lesson is devoted to online risks for children.
