Even though NCSAM is over, we always can improve our security and Internet learning, right? I know, I know, there are probably better things to write about besides the onslaught of security things this blog seems to have taken on.
We have to start with the basics as people are always coming online and this type of thing is going to be a continuing problem until we can properly teach this stuff as part of school. I never learned this in school, and maybe when they teach typing and the like, they can talk about online accounts and teach students with accounts set up for them that protecting it is important. It wouldn’t be a long course, but maybe something along those lines would be good.
There are three headings in this article. They are:
- Why strong passwords matter
- Creating a strong password
- Checking the strength of your password
and this could be taught somehow to children to teach them early on protecting an account to be used later on.
I’m not sure what grade this should be taught in, but definitely before college.
