Whether you are a parent, caregiver, or educator, you can keep up with the latest computer and online safety issues and help kids learn to avoid the real dangers that exist in their Internet-connected world. In partnership with security expert and author, Linda McCarthy, Microsoft offers a free, downloadable version of her new book, Own Your Space: Keep Yourself and Your Stuff Safe Online.
Written for computer and Internet savvy “tweens” and teens, this book is also a useful resource for the adults they rely on.
