Titled Ready, Get Set, Connect!, the cybersafety workbook is designed to break down complex cybersafety topics like phishing, fake news, and cyberbullying into exciting activities and bite-sized text to keep kids focused and engaged. Cyberlite’s co-founders Nina Bual and Michelle Yao will be conducting interactive workshops based on the workbook for students, parents, and teachers at schools to further promote the importance of digital literacy and wellness.


The Palo Alto Networks Cyber A.C.E.S. program is designed to educate students from ages 5 to 15 with the skills they need to protect their digital future and become good digital citizens. Cyber A.C.E.S. is part of a comprehensive effort to drive social impact through cybersecurity education, employee engagement, community partnerships, alignment with the academic curriculum, and diversifying the future talent pipeline.


The Digital for Life movement calls on members of the public, private and people sectors to contribute to helping all Singaporeans embrace digital as a lifelong pursuit, and to enrich their lives through digital. Cyber-safety is a key ingredient for our youth’s digital wellness today, and Cyberlite Books and Palo Alto Networks are pleased to contribute to Digital for Life through this initiative.


Public events for the family

The increase of children’s screen times since the start of the pandemic has contributed to the rise in cyberbullying cases and phishing attacks online. Parents are worried, yet little is done to increase awareness and education about being smart online. From August to October, Palo Alto Networks and Cyberlite Books will be hosting public cybersafety webinars and workshops for the whole family in support of the Digital for Life movement. Parents and kids can learn about the dangers that lurk online, how to navigate popular gaming and social media apps, and participate in activities that encourage critical thinking. Information on these events will be published at www.cyberlitebooks.com/whats-on.
