Cyber ethics is a code when using the Internet. Because of the nature of the Internet, however, there is no standard code of conduct. The individual user can choose what kind of websites to create, what comments they post, how they treat other users, and what files or information to download.

Research shows that there is a perceived anonymity on the Internet. This anonymity sometimes encourages young people to initiate or participate in negative behaviour when they normally would not. This behaviour includes: sending threating messages, posting rumors, posting fake or offensive profile, or submitting a negative image of someone. However, we are not as anonymous as we believe we are. Our "Digital Footprint" proves this.

From massive Denial of Service, or DDos attacks, to malware and brute force password cracking there are a lot of ways for hackers to gain access to your data, so we’ll also discuss some strategies like creating strong passwords, and using 2-factor authentication, to keep your information safe.
