Join us for a free, hands-on workshop designed to help older adults feel more confident and secure using the internet. In just 60 minutes, we’ll walk you through simple steps to protect your personal information and stay safe online.

You’ll learn how to create and manage strong passwords using easy-to-use tools like password managers and memorable passphrases. We’ll also explain what multi-factor authentication (MFA) is and how it adds an extra layer of security to your accounts.

We’ll show you how to adjust your social media privacy settings, manage your online accounts, and spot common privacy risks. You’ll also find out how identity theft happens—and what you can do to protect yourself, including how to freeze your credit reports if needed.

Everyone will receive helpful handouts and step-by-step guides so you can put what you learn into practice at home. Plus, there will be plenty of time for questions at the end.

This welcoming session is perfect for adults aged 55 and older. It will be held at the Cheyenne Mountain Library in Colorado Springs.

Topics include:

• Easy ways to create strong passwords
