Kaspersky has some good tips for the parents:

§  Spend more time communicating with your children about online safety measures. 

Tell your children what must not, under any circumstances, 

be published on the Internet and why.


§  Surf and learn together.  

See where they spend their time online and explore how to best keep them safe.  

Also spending time to play online games, so you can learn from each other.


§  Explain that all the sensitive information can be shared 

only via messengers and only with people you know in real life.


§  And yes, we do recommend parents to install a cybersecurity software 

like Kaspersky Total Security to protect their kids against online threats.
