Delhi Schools Promote Cyber Safety Awareness Among Students
Delhi schools are teaching students and staff how to stay safe online because there are more and more cybercrimes.
The government told schools to teach about things like strong passwords, not sharing personal info, and avoiding public Wi-Fi.
They're also teaching about recognizing scams like fake job offers and phishing attempts.
Schools will talk about this during morning gatherings and put up posters to remind everyone.
If someone sees something suspicious, they should tell a teacher or principal.
The goal is to help students become smart and safe online citizens.
The DoE mandates Delhi schools to promote digital safety awareness.
The initiative aims to combat increasing cybercrimes targeting students and staff.
Guidelines include advice on strong passwords, two-factor authentication, and avoiding public Wi-Fi.
Schools will read guidelines during morning assemblies and display safety advisories.
Students and staff are encouraged to report suspicious activities immediately.
