Dear students, please be attentive when using online space because there are some internet security problems. Your email does not fly directly from your computer to the intended recipient’s computer. It goes through several nodes and leaves behind information as it passes. It can be accessed all along the path (not only in/from your country!)
Someone could be looking over your shoulder as you type. This is especially problematic in internet cafes. If you are connected to a network, your email may be accessible to everyone else in the office. Your system administrator may have special administrative privileges to access all emails.
Your internet service provider (ISP) has access to your emails, and anyone with influence over your ISP may be able to pressure it into forwarding them copies of all your emails or to stop certain emails from getting through.
As they pass through the internet, your emails flow through hundreds of insecure third-parties. Hackers can access email messages as they pass. The ISP of your intended recipient may also be vulnerable, along with the network and office of your intended recipient.
Discover below what is the term "digital citizenship" used for.
Digital citizenship means using the technology to discover and share information; building bridges between different cultures. It includes rules of good citizenship online such as email etiquette, protecting private information and staying safe online, in this way students become responsible.
