The Free State of Bavaria is strengthening the digital security of its citizens with a new, low-threshold online offer. The Bavarian State Ministry for Digital Affairs (StMD) has launched a new website that provides information about the most important topics relating to IT and cyber security in an easy-to-understand, practical manner.
The platform is aimed specifically at people with disabilities because all content is available in sign language and plain language. Even citizens who have little experience in the digital space can check and improve their own digital security through compact tutorials and an interactive readiness check.
Digital Minister Dr. Fabian Mehring emphasizes:
Cybersecurity is not a question of specialized technical knowledge, but rather digital self-defense for everyone. With our new website, we meet people exactly where they are - and make cybersecurity understandable, tangible and suitable for everyday use.
A central element of the new platform is the Readiness Check. With just a few clicks, users can check how well they are positioned in terms of IT security. The interactive tool asks simple questions on topics such as password protection, updates or threats in cyberspace - and at the end provides an evaluation with practical tips on how to improve your own digital security.
