The added convenience made
possible by the Internet also

makes it harder and harder
for us to maintain anonymity.

When you purchase
something online,

you're buying habits
can be logged,

and you may be targeted
with marketing,

even when you want to
do something simple,

like book a dinner reservation,

your name, phone number, email,

and maybe even a credit
card number are required.

Now think about the
information you post

publicly; name, pictures,

family, friends, and even your

location may be available
to anyone online.

Be aware of what you're
sharing by reviewing

the privacy policy of the
service before you use it.

It's up to you to decide
if the trade-offs of

a service are worth sharing
your personal information.

In most cases,
companies are trying to

build great products that
make our lives easier.

They may offer their
products for free

because you provide
them with free data.

Just make sure your information

won't fall into the wrong hands.

Privacy doesn't just affect
us on a personal scale.

It's also become a
concern for governments.

In Europe, data regulation
and privacy are strictly

protected to help EU citizens

gain more control over
their personal information.

COPPA, or the Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act,

also regulates the
information we show

to children under the age of 13.

There are many more examples of

government regulation
of privacy.

It's no longer
something we can think

of on an individual scale.

Another concern that's
grown with the rise

of the Internet is the
issue of copyright.

Imagine you create
a beautiful graphic

and upload it on the web
for your friends to see,

then some random stranger
takes your graphic,

claims that as their own,

and sells it for profit.

Thankfully, several companies

have been founded and designed

specifically to help
solve this issue of

copyright and intellectual
property theft.

There are also efforts

in place that you've
learned about,

like open source projects

that benefit from
being on the Internet.

In these cases,
open collaboration

allows a project to thrive.

On top of privacy and
copyright considerations,

computer security is
another issue that you

may face in both your personal
and professional life.

More and more
companies are being

targeted in
cybersecurity attacks.

For example, the WannaCry
attack that started in Europe,

infected hundreds of thousands

of computers across the world.

The financial loss
of that attack has

been estimated at over
a billion dollars.

Hospital computers
were even infected.

In a critical life

threatening moment,
every second matters.

Not being able to perform
basic medical duties,

like pulling medical
records took

time away from
doctors and nurses,

and more importantly, the
lives of their patients.

Before the WannaCry attack,

there were lots of other
worldwide attacks.

In 2011, the Sony PlayStation
network was attacked and

around 77 million user accounts

had personal
information exposed.

Everything from entire
governments to businesses that

handle the data of millions of

people have been compromised.

Computer security is no longer

the job of specialized
security engineers.

It's everyone's responsibility.

As an IT support specialist,

you'll need to have a
fundamental understanding

of computer security.

I spend every day
working in security.

I love working in the field
because I get to help

protect people and their devices
from all over the globe.
