You know when they say ā€œthe beginning will always seem rosyā€? Please, don’t play with that saying
When we started SQL, I was shouting ā€œOuch! This is for me ā€ It felt so easy Fast-forward to now, and all I can say is… hmm Still, I showed up for class today and We learnt about different categories of SQL commands and practiced how to use them. #CyberSecurity #TechJourney
AI can clone your voice in seconds. It’s called a deepfake, and scammers use it to trick people into sending money or sharing private info. To Protect yourself: • Don’t post long voice notes • Use a ā€œsafe wordā€ with loved ones • Verify before acting #CyberSecurity #AITips

Cybersecurity isn’t just for ā€œtech bros.ā€ It’s for anyone with a phone, an ATM card, or a bank app. I’ll keep learning and sharing. We all need to be more aware. #WomenInTech #DigitalSafety #MyCyberJourney

There’s something about showing up, even on the hard days. Went in for exams today looking composed. Came back tired but grateful. Now it’s time to breathe, reset, and prepare for tomorrow’s cybersecurity class. Growth is happening. #TechGirlJourney #CyberSecInProgress
Lesson learned? You don’t need to be ā€œhackedā€ to be watched. Cybersecurity isn’t just about systems, it’s about protecting yourself. #MalwareAwareness #LearningInPublic #DigitalSafety
The keylogger part blew my mind. It records everything you type, passwords, messages, logins. Our tutor even said some people use it to spy on their partners from offshore Wild, but real.
we dove into the types of Malwares: Viruses Worms Trojans Keyloggers šŸ‘€
