Hopefully you did, if not, it&#8217;s totally okay because now is just as good of a time as any to start learning about cyber security and how you can protect your family!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the start of school this year many districts are going with a virtual option. This leaves kids on devices almost all day and night. So making sure they are cyber aware is a very important part of using the internet and all of these different apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1196\" height=\"982\" src=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/EiDSw_uX0AEWxWA.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/EiDSw_uX0AEWxWA.jpg 1196w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/EiDSw_uX0AEWxWA-600x493.jpg 600w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/EiDSw_uX0AEWxWA-640x525.jpg 640w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/EiDSw_uX0AEWxWA-768x631.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1196px) 100vw, 1196px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need help, consider using the FBI Safe Online Surfing program.
