Overview
This project is a visual cybersecurity awareness job aid designed to support safe online behavior through clear, actionable guidance. The resource distills common digital security risks into concise, easy-to-understand practices that can be quickly referenced by learners without requiring prior technical knowledge.

Problem
Many cybersecurity incidents stem from everyday behaviors such as weak passwords, outdated software, and phishing attempts. Traditional security training is often text-heavy or overly technical, making it difficult for learners to recall key practices at the moment of need.

Solution
This job aid presents five essential online security practices—strong passwords, two-factor authentication, software updates, phishing awareness, and mindful information sharing—using simple language, icons, and numbered steps. The visual design prioritizes cognitive clarity and quick scanning, enabling learners to absorb and apply guidance efficiently.

Design Approach

• Human-centered, visual-first layout to reduce cognitive load,

• Plain-language guidance for broad accessibility,

• Modular structure allowing each tip to stand alone,

• Emphasis on behavior change rather than technical instruction.
  
  

Audience & Use Case
Intended for students, employees, and community members, this resource can be used as a standalone awareness tool, a supplement to cybersecurity training, or a quick-reference reminder in onboarding and compliance contexts.

Impact
By translating cybersecurity best practices into a concise visual format, the job aid supports safer digital decision-making, reinforces consistent security behaviors, and helps reduce avoidable security risks across diverse audiences.
