Abstract [eng] People use digital devices every day. These devices help people with their work, help students engage in their studies, and provide people of all ages with entertainment. Through an internet connection, digital devices are connected to the global network that is called cyberspace. This article explains the concept of cyberspace and its threats. Most people enjoy cyberspace opportunities and use devices to communicate. However, others exploit cyberspace for unfriendly purposes. They work like thieves on the streets and steal digital data. Do you know how they can steal your data? This article explains how our daily behaviors in cyberspace can lead us into digital traps if we are not careful. We will also teach you about safety measures and how to use them, so you can safely enjoy your time online.
