Conroy launches service to warn of e-crimes
THE Rudd Government will today launch a no-cost, no-jargon internet service that alerts computer users to cyber threats.
The plain-English Stay Smart Online alerts service, provided by the nation's Computer Emergency Response Team, will help home and small business users secure their own PCs against rising levels of cyber-scams and fraud.
It is the first time ordinary computer users have been offered access to information about local and global threats through a government agency.
