1. Security risks

2. Phishing

   • Phishing is when someone encourages you to give out your personal information rather than retrieving it without your knowledge.

3. Encryption

   • The main way fro protection is called encryption. This is when we can lock our data so no one can intercept it.

4. Security information stored

   • People store a lot of information online, their name, their email and even important things like credit card details

5. Password Protection
