On Friday, March 22, 2024 from 2-4pm in the Kingsley Room, join us to learn more about staying safe online.

Join us for the beginning of this series. Part one of this two-part series will focus on the types of threats and scams that exist, what the crooks are after, and some general advice for staying safe. We will discuss malware, ransomware, phishing, social engineering, tech support scams, and more. We will also discuss the importance of using good passwords.
