Do not use one password for several sites or pages, in addition to the main e-mail box, create an additional one, do not follow links, do not download files from suspicious sites. These simple rules will help to avoid serious problems with software computer, said System Administrator The Central City Library Andrey Kutenev at a consultation for pensioners, which took place on February 6 as part of the Safe Internet Day.

Nadezhda Pastukhova, a specialist in the Department of Legal Electronic Information and Services, showed how to work on sites that help generate complex passwords. Immediately, the elderly participants in the class tried to create passwords for their mailboxes and pages on social networks.

On the same day in Central Library Several more events dedicated to Internet security took place. The most vulnerable users are children. Prevent them from accessing the World Wide Web modern conditions impossible. So you need to talk about the dangers that await them there. An introductory lesson with students of the 3rd grade of school No. 44 was conducted by Larisa Amirova, head of the department of specialized literature.


Why is there little political news in the "Typical Tagil" group, how to become the "Girl of the Day" of the largest Tagil community social network VKontakte, what other projects the public plans to launch - these and other questions were asked by students of the Nizhny Tagil Medical College to the administrator of the [TT] group Ekaterina Smirnova. And the Tagil journalists present at the meeting expressed their complaints to the editors of "Typical Tagilchanin": in their opinion, borrowed materials are not always accompanied by references to the source. Ekaterina Smirnova promised to take into account all suggestions and wishes in further work.


Students of the Demidov College and the Nizhny Tagil Pedagogical Institute that day learned about the responsibility for distributing materials of an extremist nature on the Internet, as well as rehabilitating Nazism and demonstrating fascist symbols. About electronic library systems young people were told by the chief librarian of the department of specialized literature Alena Lokhanina.


Ekaterina Safroneeva, Head of the Reference and Bibliographic Department, offered to test her knowledge of safe behavior on the Internet with the help of an interactive quiz.


The “Safe Internet Day” at the Central Library ended with an informational conversation held with parents by psychologists from the City Youth Palace. It turned out that if a child plays games on a computer, this is not always a cause for concern. But if he spends several hours at this activity, does not respond to requests, ignores his parents, does not communicate with friends, then it's time to sound the alarm. Modern psychologists compare computer addiction with drug addiction. In the most severe cases, only qualified specialists can help to cope with it.

Date in 2019: .

The World Wide Web has spread at a frantic pace around the world and covered civilized society with an imperceptible grid. The positive qualities of local networks are undeniable. They were able to radically change the views on work, leisure, ways of communicating and obtaining information, training. Comfortable? Crazy. Fast? Incredible. But how safe is it? The issue of Internet security has become so global that even a holiday identical to the problem, World Safe Internet Day, has appeared.

The Internet can be treated differently. But the importance cannot be underestimated local network in breaking through the economy and solving social issues. In addition, the virtual world is a fascinating, informative and multifaceted side of the life of many users.

Unfortunately, not all actions and information received on the local network are safe. It is the importance of solving Internet security problems that prompted the world community to create a world-class holiday.

The relevance of Internet security: who celebrates the holiday?

The rapid development of electronic and information technologies inevitably affected the life of every person. The Internet has become an integral part of it, and for some, virtual communication has completely replaced the real one.

The World Wide Web has changed the views of man even on time and distance. Now it costs nothing to contact friends or business partners who are thousands of kilometers away. It is easy to find any information of interest with a couple of mouse clicks, instead of rummaging through volumes of books and other literature. And what are they worth educational programs. It's just a godsend for parents and teachers, students and just curious and creative individuals.

But the possibilities of networks were able to use not only ordinary users, but also people who were not clean at hand. And dangers lie in wait for us in the network at almost every step. Do not underestimate the actions of cyber scammers.

Hackers use various programs and viruses to gain access to our personal data, mail, cash flow. Such actions cause material and moral damage. Network "spies" steal and appropriate exclusive information and intellectual property. From which specific individuals, and entire corporations, and even countries suffer.

And children and teenagers are especially vulnerable to Internet attacks. Their still fragile psyche does not adequately respond to the flow of negativity coming from the network. After all, the pages that open links lead to sometimes terrify even adults.

The topic of negativity from the local network can be continued endlessly. And in the realities of geopolitical conflicts, the network is filled with hatred, calls for violence, outright misanthropic slogans.

Therefore, we can safely say that the World Safe Internet Day, when such problems are solved, is a holiday for everyone. This is an important day for ordinary citizens, regardless of age and status, and for any organization, enterprise, and of course, for the whole country.

history of the holiday

The internet was originally designed for use by the US military. But this technology quickly spread around the world and today there are up to 2.5 billion users on the network. And this is a third of the inhabitants of the entire planet.

And already in 2004, there was an urgent need to protect Internet users. This idea belongs to the European Commission. With the support of European SchoolNet and Insafe, non-profit organizations, a special holiday was established related to safer Internet issues. It quickly gained international status. Today, World Safer Internet Day takes place in 84 countries at once. And the date was chosen the first Tuesday of February. In 2017, the holiday falls on February 7th. On this day, many public and government organizations will hold thematic events designed to teach people to resist the actions of scammers in networks, tell them where to look for help in case of material or moral damage.

Since 2008, the National Internet Security Node in Russia organization has been dealing with such issues. She is an official member of Insafe and helps users solve problems related to the safety of using various resources. For this, a special resource has been created, where any user can leave a complaint about dangerous or illegal content.

Each Runet user must know not only the basics of working on the network, but also ways to protect themselves, their families, and their finances. On Safe Internet Day, February 7, it will be useful to learn simple but effective tips.

To ensure financial security:

  1. For payment systems and Email use different and preferably complex passwords. Choose tricky answers to your secret question, which will help you restore access to your account in the future, but will make life more difficult for scammers.
  2. Do not post personal information on forums and social networks. Remember that dishonest people can always use your phone, address and other data.
  3. Control the movement of your finances with the help of the service " mobile banking» and set limits on cash cards. So you can track and prevent unauthorized expenses.
  4. Don't trust free networks in in public places. The provider of such networks is able to track the traffic and will be able to use your data.
  5. Do not write access passwords in text files, but set separate passwords for the most important documents on your PC.
  6. If your phone or tablet is lost or stolen, try to quickly change passwords on important payment sites or block your money cards.
  7. Be sure to install a trusted antivirus program and keep it up to date.

An important issue is the safety of children on the Internet. And in many respects it depends on the attentiveness of the parents. The "Parental Control" function will help block access to unwanted sites. To cut off advertising, where pornography or propaganda of cruelty often slips, installation of special software will help.

Filter-censors help to cope with many tasks. If such filters are not installed, do not allow your child to use Runet without adult supervision.

Much more difficult with teenagers. But still, you should be interested in what sites the child visits and with whom he chats in social networks.

Of course, it is difficult for a simple layman to protect himself from all the negativity from the World Wide Web and from the actions of advanced hackers. But 80 - 90% of the security on the Internet depends on their own actions and the user's desire to protect themselves.
