Digital communication is exchanging information through digital devices and networks such as email, instant messaging, social media, and video conferencing. You are protected under the Harmful Digital Communications Act (HDCA) that deals with harmful digital communications.
If you are being bullied online and feel that your safety or the safety of someone else is at risk, you should report it to the police. If your immediate safety is not at risk, you can report it to Netsafe - the authorised agency for people to go to if they have experienced cyber bullying.
If NetSafe is not able to resolve the problem, they might advise you to take the case to the District Court. NetSafe will provide you with a โNetSafe Summaryโ to give the court as evidence that you went to them first.

Itโs Cyber Smart Week (6 -12 October). Cyber Smart Week is the National Cyber Security Centreโs (NCSC) annual campaign. This year, the focus is on the importance of cyber security and helping people and organisations to be more secure and resilient online.

How to avoid scams involving hacked social media accounts:
- When approached by your family or friends on social media talking about investment opportunities, be wary.
- Consider contacting the loved one by other means toverify their identity, such as by phone.
- Be careful when anyone or any platform requires advance payments to withdraw funds.
