Handbook for child safety in cyberspace launched
A handbook on child safety in cyberspace was launched by the Authority of Information Security under the Ministry of Information and Communications on Thursday. The document aims to provide practical tools for children and their parents to ensure their safety on the internet while enhancing their digital skills. The handbook has separate dedicated sections for children under six, children between 6-11, and adolescents aged 11-16, as well as a general section on the basics of the internet and child safety in cyberspace and a section introducing useful tools and software to protect children when using the internet.
Reports from the General Statistics Office of Việt Nam (GSO) showed that by the end of 2023, Việt Nam’s population reached approximately 100.3 million people, with children making up nearly a quarter of this figure. Two-thirds of children have access to internet-connected devices.
