REFLECTION:
We are now in
a digital economy, and we all know that in this society, information is one of
the commodity. Most of the young people today were so eager to find information
about someone or something and for us to have the answers we tend to use or
seek help from our gadgets or computers. It so happened that some of us doesn't use it in its proper way. Improper used to it can cause a very sophisticated
crime just like the CYBER CRIMES.
As an education
student, who is also fun of searching the net and also attended a seminar about
cyber crimes, I think I should start
within myself. Being a good example who obeys every protocol is the
first step to save us from danger. Attending the seminar about cyber crime give
me such an insight about all the possibilities that may happen if I will not be
careful of what am I doing. With all the information that I learned through the
seminar, I can now share it with other students. The second step will be sharing some of the instances
that they might encounter on the net will be great enough to prevent cyber
crimes. Conducting a seminar like what I’m attended is very helpful strategy of
giving or informing individuals about a specific topic. For the third step I
will encourage every student
to participate in different kinds of seminars especially those seminars who focuses about our safety in crimes. Lastly, I can advice my fellow students to be aware and be cautious enough
of what we do in front of our computers. Bear in mind what Desiderius Erasmus
says “PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE”.
