JSSEC Press release: October 7, 2024 JSSEC creates “Security Karuta” for children to learn about smartphone security ~ Looking for organizations that can utilize Security Karuta ~ The Awareness Working Group (Chairman: Takemi Fujihira) of the Japan Smartphone Security Association (JSSEC; Chairman: Ryoichi Sasaki) has created the “Smartphone Security Karuta” (hereinafter referred to as Security Karuta) to help children learn about smartphone security. We have created a website and have started recruiting organizations that can utilize it. As children are increasingly using smartphones, we are now in an era where education is needed not only on how to use smartphones and morals, but also on information security, but there is a shortage of human resources who have knowledge of smartphone security and can provide education. I am. As new apps and SNS are appearing one after another, the communication tools that children use are changing year by year, and as a result, the current class format that teaches answers such as “this is what you should do” and “this is not good” cannot keep up with countermeasures. . Therefore, the JSSEC Awareness Business
Subcommittee’s Education Working Group has created a security karuta for fifth graders of elementary school to second grade of junior high school in order to achieve the following. The Japan Smartphone Security Association is looking for organizations that support our purpose and would like to utilize “Security Karuta,” so please use this as an opportunity to learn about smartphone security.
