"Be a Smart Netizen" Video Contest Build a Secure Cyberspace 2013

The objective of the “Be a Smart Netizen” video contest is to promote the awareness of information security and adoption of best security practices in the community.  The video should tell a story on how a smart netizen could prevent and respond to the potential security threats to our daily lives.  Examples of cases are the loss of USB flash drives leading to leakage of sensitive data, e-banking account being compromised resulting in financial loss, email account being hacked for illegal activities, enterprise website or network being attacked causing service suspension, and other Internet fraud, etc.  The video should also demonstrate the countermeasures and/or best practices in defending against those security threats.
