11:00 AM: Online Class Adventure

                  During his online class, Arjun’s friend Rohan sends him a link to a free
                  game  promising 1000  coins.  The link looks  strange, filled with random
                  characters and numbers. Arjun thinks:
                  This doesn't look like a trusted website.

                  He does not click on it and warns Rohan that such links can install malware,
                  steal personal data, or hack accounts.


                                      Lesson 2: Be careful of suspicious links and downloads!





                                                               4:00 PM: Gaming Time!

                                                               Arjun  is  playing  his  favourite  online  game  with his
                                                               friends. A new player  joins  and starts  asking  for
                                                               personal information like his full name, school name,
                                                               and home location. Arjun recalls the cyber safety rule:

                                                               "Never share personal information with strangers
                                                               online."

                                                               He refuses to share anything and reports the unknown
                                                               player to the game moderator/reporting system.



                                    Lesson 3: Don't share personal details with strangers online!





                  8:00 PM: The Social Media Story
                  Arjun’s elder  sister,  Gaurvi, is creating  a new social

                  media  profile.  Before  posting  her first  picture,  Arjun
                  reminds her to turn on:
                      Privacy settings

                      Profile visibility: Private

                      Only friends can see posts
                      Two-factor authentication (2FA) for extra security

                  This ensures that only people she knows and trusts can
                  see her posts and pictures.


                                 Lesson 4: Set privacy settings to private on all social media apps!
