Guard your personal information
- Staying safe online starts with guarding your personally identifiable information 个人身份信息 (PII).
- That is data like your name, address, ID number, or location.
- Such data can identify you and be misused if exposed.
- Think before you share it.
Personally identifiable information (PII) includes:

PII can identify you and be misused if exposed.
Common threats
- Phishing 网络钓鱼: fake messages that trick you into revealing passwords or card numbers.
- Malware 恶意软件: harmful software that damages or spies on a device.
- Social engineering: manipulating people rather than machines into giving up secrets.
- Most attacks target the human, not just the computer.
Encryption 加密 scrambles plaintext with a key; only the key can decrypt it
A threat, or a defence?
Phishing, malware, and social engineering are threats; encryption and strong authentication are defences that keep data and accounts safe.
Phishing is:

Asymmetric solves the problem of sharing a secret key safely.
In asymmetric encryption, the public key is used to unlock the data.

False. The public key locks (encrypts) and only the matching private key unlocks (decrypts), which solves the key-sharing problem.
Encryption
- A key defence is encryption — encoding data so only authorised users can read it.
- Symmetric 对称 encryption uses a single shared key to both lock and unlock. Fast, but both sides must share the secret safely.
- Asymmetric 非对称 encryption uses a pair of keys: a public key anyone can use to lock, and a private key only the receiver has to unlock.
- Asymmetric solves the key-sharing problem — it is how secure websites work.
Why does two-factor authentication help even if your password is stolen?

A second factor is still required, adding a layer of safety.
Safe habits
- Apply strong authentication 身份验证 — hard passwords and two-factor login.
- Be cautious about sharing personal data.
A secure website. When you see the padlock, your browser and the server use asymmetric encryption to safely agree on a shared secret, then switch to fast symmetric encryption for the rest. An attacker who intercepts the traffic sees only scrambled data. Add a strong password and two-factor login, and a stolen password alone still won't unlock your account.
Safe computing starts with guarding your PII. Watch for threats — phishing, malware, and social engineering. Defend with encryption: symmetric (one shared key, fast) and asymmetric (public + private keys, solves key sharing, powers secure sites). Add strong authentication like two-factor login.
