Cybersecurity for Everyone
A people-first guide to digital safety. This book empowers everyone, from students to leaders, to build secure habits, prevent cyber threats, and create a culture of cybersecurity in daily life.
In this edition of Cyber Book Club, we’re featuring Cybersecurity for Everyone by Cathy Olieslaeger, a refreshing, human-centered guide that reimagines how we approach cybersecurity. Instead of focusing on complex tools and technical jargon, this book brings cybersecurity back to where it belongs, with the people.
First time seeing this?
Olieslaeger challenges the traditional methods that have dominated cybersecurity for decades and makes the case for a new approach - one rooted in understanding, accessibility, and community responsibility. Whether you’re a student, teacher, parent, employee, or business leader, this book explains how digital safety impacts you and how you can make a meaningful difference.
It’s not about hacking or advanced certifications. It’s about cultivating a culture of security in homes, schools, and workplaces. It’s about building habits and spreading awareness that leads to safer digital spaces for everyone.
