APEC Women Empowerment through Cybercrime-Free
Workshop for Secure Online Trading in the 4th Industrial Revolution
Synergizing women with smart technology is vital in SME online trading. The
economy's sustainable development must consider the cyber well-being of the
population, especially women who are often victims of cybercrime. Cybercrime issues
such as cyber harassment, financial fraud, phishing, e-commerce fraud, and love scam
mainly involve women as primary victims. This prompted a training program that
focuses on empowering women in securing online trading, named the APEC Women
Empowerment Through Cybercrime-Free Workshop for secure online trading, to be
held in Malaysia , aiming to raise essential cyber security skillsets among
APEC women. Four modules embedding hands-on practical activities: Cybercrime and
Threats, Law and Best Practices, Prevention Measures, and Reflection Activities are
the concentrations.
