Possible instructions for educators on how they can work together with the learners. Knowing the tools for 21st Century Learning is primordial to give quality courses.
One very important knowledge who needs to get taught is “Critical Thinking”; it brings out also new ideas and the courage to become an engager and helps to try to build a better world in both worlds: “Real World” and “Virtual World” (Internet)!
Can YOU drive a car (and this also safely) ONLY by getting theoretical courses and advice? YOU would surprise me, seriously, a BIG LOL for that. So how YOU will expect that someone could surf secure with his computer as it is “visually seen” the “vehicle” with whom users are driving on the “Data High Way” (Internet)!???
There is a need for practice, how!?

When you cross the street, you look both ways to make sure it’s safe. Staying safe on the Internet is similar. It takes some common sense steps.
- STOP: Before you use the Internet, take time to understand the risks and learn how to spot potential problems.
- THINK: Take a moment to be certain the path ahead is clear. Watch for warning signs and consider how your actions online could impact your safety, or your family’s.
- CONNECT: Enjoy the Internet with greater confidence, knowing you’ve taken the right steps to safeguard yourself and your computer. Protect yourself and help keep the web a safer place for everyone.
The Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) and National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) led the development of the STOP. THINK. CONNECT. campaign. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security provides the Federal Government's leadership for the STOP. THINK. CONNECT. campaign.

More than 80pc of IT managers think enterprises with a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy have a competitive advantage over other organisations, research commissioned by BT suggests.
Security concerns come with BYOD
Thirty-nine per cent of enterprises have experienced a security breach due to employees bringing in unauthorised devices – most commonly in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and pharmaceuticals sectors, according to the survey.

Oxford Muses on Mac Flashback: Worst Outbreak Since Blaster
So how bad was last month's Mac Flashback outbreak and who suffered the most? Our guess: it was bad, and university IT help desks.
And it looks like our guess might not be far off the mark.
===> Oxford University Computing Services' network security team (aka OxCERT) has written that they dealt "with what is probably the biggest outbreak since Blaster struck the Windows world all the way back in the summer of 2003." <===
OxCERT dealt with around 1000 incidents for Blaster. They've seen several hundred Flashback incidents… "and they keep on coming."

At any given moment today, on-the-clock employees are updating their social media status, reading feeds and networking on business media sites.
Remember that hackers now target mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs. Businesses should specify whether employees are permitted to access social networking sites from these devices and which apps may be used to do so.
Once policies are established, it may be necessary to reinforce them with a carefully considered combination of network monitoring and data protection technologies. In some cases, these technologies may already be in place as part of standard IT security measures.
===> If so, they should be configured to include social networking controls. <===

City University London showcases its course offerings at a major information security exhibition.
According to Kevin Jones, Professor of Dependability and Security: "This is our third year at Infosecurity Europe. We have been attending this important security industry exhibition, precisely because it is one of the key events for information security professionals and a good place to increase awareness of our course offering."
One of the important highlights of City's participation at the exhibition was Professor Jones' interview with Deputy Editor of Infosecurity magazine, Drew Amorosi, on the role of City University London in addressing the skills gap in the cyber security arena.

The same Java vulnerability used in the infamous Flashback malware is now being used as an attack vector for a single piece of malware that can infect both Windows and Mac OS X computers.
Security vendors have discovered a new piece of malware that attacks both PCs and Macs. It uses the same Java security vulnerability exploited by the Flashback malware that infected hundreds of thousands of Macs. While the attack vector is the same as in Flashback, this Java Applet checks which OS it is running on and downloads suitable malware for it.
