Cameron Camp a Security Researcher at the ESET North America Research Lab joins Craig to discuss keep yourself and your children safe online. Children and young people spend huge amounts of time online and may not be aware of the dangers. As well as the usual worries such as malware and scams they are also at risk from predators online. It makes more sense to tell the kids how to behave if you know what you are talking about! So spend some time on chat rooms, teen-friendly web sites, Facebook, Twitter and other online destinations to see how it all works.
