Transcript

Digitisation, as it is passing through our lives, and successfully passing through it, because there are many welfare gains. It is much easier to do banking, to date friends. In the same way, there are of course also many opportunities for prevention work. When I think of younger people, it immediately comes to my mind: We all went to school once and we learned how difficult learning can sometimes be, in the classic sense of frontal teaching. Today, this is done through gamification, a great tool, a great opportunity especially for prevention work. But I am also thinking of the other possibilities for older people, by having concepts like “Train the Trainer”, where older people are approached in a completely different way depending on the target group, so that they know how to move safely in cyberspace or the digital world. How can I participate in this? How can I differentiate and distinguish between things that normally seem right and things that are wrong. What are the right protection measures that I am taking? There are a large number of instructions, which are, for example, target group-specific. I think of BSI-fuer-buerger.de as an example. I am thinking of the websites of the police crime prevention or I am also thinking, for example, of the cyber primer created by Deutschland-sicher-im-Netz, where you have a simple reference book, where you can see what opportunities digitalisation offers on the one hand, what are the keywords there. But on the other hand, how can I protect myself there appropriately? It is quite important to note that just as criminals move with the times and become more and more digital, so prevention work will also become more and more digital, so that we can ultimately live safely and confidently in a digital world.
