Kaspersky is expanding its Children’s Cyber Resilience Project to Vietnam, in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, and also launching it in the Middle East and CIS countries.
This initiative will equip children and teenagers with essential cybersecurity skills, fostering a safer digital experience for the younger generation in an increasingly interconnected world. The Kaspersky Kids Cyber Resilience Project focuses on raising awareness among children, parents, educators, and NGOs about online threats. It also stresses the importance of digital hygiene, practical ways to enhance online security, and enjoy technology. Through interactive workshops, online courses, and other activities, the program encourages responsible digital behaviour, helping children develop the resilience needed to navigate the internet safely.
Launched in Singapore in March last year, the initiative has run in a number of other countries in APAC – the Philippines, Malaysia, and India – to date. As Vietnam is experiencing rapid digital growth and concerns over cybersecurity risks among younger audiences are increasing, the project will aim to empower Vietnamese educators with the knowledge and tools to foster a secure digital environment and protect themselves and their students from digital threats.
Kaspersky will introduce its Cyber Resilience Project for the first time to the Middle East, a region that is placing growing emphasis on digital transformation and cybersafety.
Kaspersky also plans to launch a Cyber Resilience project in Russia by the end of the year, continuing the company’s flagship effort, enhancing the next generation’s cyber resilience, by engaging local schools and communities.
