Always Use Protection: A Teen's Guide to Safe Computing

AUTHOR Appleman, Dan
PUBLISHER Apress (04/21/2004)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description

Security experts know that home users are the most vulnerable to viruses. In fact, many home users are teenagers. They often have the best computer (for games), and spend the most time on the Web. And while the news media and parents have done a decent job of warning teenagers of the risks of strangers in public chat rooms, they've done virtually nothing to teach teens other aspects of computer security.

Always Use Protection: A Teen's Guide to Safe Computing contains the most important things every teen needs to know about computer security. Not just the usual information about protecting teens online, but the equally important information on protecting computers from viruses and preventing identity theft (which teens surprisingly suffer from as well).
