About Us

Pioneers in Cyber Safety Education and Consulting Services
 

In 2009, what grew to become Safe on Social, embarked on an ambitious project to conduct the first eRisk review for an Australian government agency comprising over 12,000 staff members. Our objective was to assess the use of social media by the agency's employees and identify potential risks, with the ultimate goal of writing and implementing an effective social media safe use policy, risk mitigation strategies, and education. This project set the bar for industry best practise.

Understanding the Distinction
 

Cyber Security vs. Cyber Safety although both vital, cyber security and cyber safety serve different purposes. Cyber security shields computer systems and networks from unauthorised access, whereas cyber safety safeguards people from potential online dangers and harms. Safe on Social excels in providing comprehensive cyber safety training and consulting services for organisations of all sizes.
