A practical evening course at the Volkshochschule (VHS) Neuss — for anyone who wants to finally take their digital security seriously.
Hacked accounts? Lost data? Not on my watch! — Tips for better data security
"That won't happen to me. I've got nothing to hide. My data isn't that important."
Many people think this way — until an account is suddenly taken over, confidential information is misused, or precious memories are lost forever. The reality is: anyone can be a target.
Identity theft, extortion, drained bank accounts, or the loss of personal photos are not abstract threats but everyday risks. In this course you'll learn how to protect yourself with simple, practical steps.

Recognising Mindset Traps
Why "I'm not important enough to hack" is the most dangerous sentence on the internet — and how to think differently.
Imagine this happened to you…
…Your online banking is suddenly locked — and you don't know why.
…Friends call because "you" sent them fraudulent emails.
…Photos, documents, and personal memories are suddenly gone forever.
Cyberattacks and data losses don't just target companies — attacks are often automated. Anyone who's not protected risks becoming an easy target.
Mindset traps that can become dangerous
Many people have a false sense of security. Do any of these sound familiar?
Gain confidence, minimise risk
100% protection doesn't exist — but you can drastically reduce your risk.
