Chat Description:  "From cyberbullying to social networking to digital identity, each year Safer Internet Day aims to raise awareness of emerging online issues and current concerns." The National Cryptologic Foundation aims to help raise awareness and answer your questions to help make your internet experience safer.

Do you wonder how to protect your phone? Is that picture you posted really there forever? How do companies know you wanted clothing from a specific store? Is someone keeping track of what websites you visit?  For the NCF #CyberChats' Safer Internet Day session, Charissa Kim, a young person from K-12 CyberTalk (https://k12cybertalk.org/), answers these questions and more along with providing tips on how to stay safe on the Internet.

What are the dangers of social media?
What is a good password and how should I keep track of them?
What do I do if I’m a victim of a cyber attack?
