Cyber Conduct

Disclaimer

A few important things to know.

Cyber Conduct is here to provide practical information and guidance. Please understand what that means before relying on information from the site.

General information

The information provided by Cyber Conduct is intended for general educational and informational purposes. It is designed to help people understand common cybersecurity problems and identify sensible steps they may be able to take.

Information on this website should not be treated as personalised professional cybersecurity, legal, financial or emergency advice.

No guaranteed outcome

Cybersecurity situations can vary significantly from one person or device to another. Following guidance provided by Cyber Conduct does not guarantee that an account, device, system or piece of information will be recovered, protected or made secure.

Not an emergency or investigation service

Cyber Conduct is not a law-enforcement agency, emergency response service, forensic investigation service, bank, legal practice or financial adviser.

If you are dealing with an immediate threat, financial loss, identity theft, criminal activity or another emergency, you should contact the appropriate professional, organisation or emergency service.

Independent project

Cyber Conduct is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with any other platform, organisation or service unless that relationship is explicitly stated.

No unnecessary personal information

Cyber Conduct does not require visitors to create an account or sign in to access its core resources. We aim to minimise the personal information collected through the platform and only request information where there is a specific reason for doing so.

Visitors should never submit passwords, PINs, one-time passwords, banking credentials, recovery codes or other sensitive account information through the website.

External websites and resources

Cyber Conduct may link to external websites, services or resources. Those third-party websites operate independently and may have their own terms, privacy policies and practices. Cyber Conduct is not responsible for the content, availability or practices of external services.

Financial transparency

Cyber Conduct is currently provided without financial gain. If this changes in the future, we will be transparent about the introduction of paid services, commercial activities or other changes that may affect how people use the platform.

Use your judgement

Cybersecurity guidance can help you understand your options, but you remain responsible for deciding what action is appropriate for your circumstances. When a situation is serious, time-sensitive or involves significant financial, legal or personal risk, seek appropriate professional assistance.
