What is Get Safe Online Week?
Get Safe Online Week is an annual event to raise awareness of
internet safety issues. Get Safe Online reaches out to consumers
and small businesses through competitions, events and
communications activity. And to businesses and organisations
through the annual Get Safe Online Summit which kicks off the week
on Monday, 7th November in central London. Watch this space
throughout October and November to find out the latest updates or

What is the objective?
The objective is to encourage everyone to take some time out of
their week to learn more about internet safety and to make sure
that their computer is properly protected. The risks are serious
but prevention is easy. A few hours is all you need. It's a small
price to pay compared to the huge hassle of dealing with viruses,
identity theft and online fraud.
