Social media is a website, application, or online
channels that enable web users to create, co-
create, discuss, modify, and exchange user-
generated content.
SIX TYPES OF SOCIAL MEDIA:
• Social Networks. These are sites that allow you to connect
with other people with the same interests or background.
• Bookmarking Sites. These are sites that allow you to store
and manage links to various websites and resources.
• Social News. These are sites that allow users to post their
own news items or links to other news sources.
• Media Sharing. These are sites that allow you to upload
and share media content like images, music, and video.
• Microblogging. These are sites that focus on short updates
from the user.
• Blogs and Forums. These websites allow users to post
their content.

has taken a major rise over the years. This is

computers.

Are we still safe online?
Online Safety and Security
The Internet, truly, is a powerful tool.
It can be used to promote your
business, gain new friends, and stay
in touch with the old ones. It is also a
source of entertainment. But like most
things in this world, there is always
“another side of the coin.” The
Internet is one of the most dangerous
places, especially if you do not know
what you are doing.
Disclosing Information Online
Internet Threats:
1. Malware – stands for malicious software
Types: Virus, Worm, Trojan, Spyware, Adware
2. Spam – unwanted email mostly from bots

or advertisers. It can be used to send
malware.
3. Phishing – Its goal is to acquire sensitive

personal information like passwords and
credit card details.
Think Before You Click
1. Before you post something on the web, ask these questions
to yourself: Would you want your parents or grandparents to see
it? Would you want your future boss to see it? Once you post
something on the web, you have no control of who sees your
posts.
2. Your friends depend on you to protect their reputation online.
Talk to your friends about this serious responsibility.
3. Set your post to “private.” In this way, search engines will
not be able to scan that post.
4. Avoid using names. Names are easy for search engines to
scan.
5. If you feel that a post can affect you or other’s reputation, ask
the one who posted it to pull it down or report it as
inappropriate.
COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT
If you create something—an

idea, an invention, a form of
literary work, or a research, you
have the right of how it should
be used by others. This is called
intellectual property.
