Avril Ronan is the Global Programme Manager for Trend Micro’s Internet Safety for Kids and Families. On 5th April she delivered an engaging and practical talk called “Internet Safety for Everyone”. Even though a large amount of the content focused on child safety online, the reality is that these key safety principles can be applied across ALL ages. Avril gave many practical tips of how to be safe online and sign posted a number of further resources that parents and everybody can access at any stage.
