Google Safety Centre for Vietnamese launched

Homepage of Google Safety Centre's website

HÀ NỘI — Google in cooperation with the National Cyber Security Centre has launched the Google Safety Centre and the Safer Programme with Google for Vietnamese users.

The Google Safety Centre's website at https://safety.google/intl/vi/ informs users about ways to keep personal information private and safe, and give them control. It also provides security tips to keep users safe whenever they're online, not just on Google products.

To help families better manage their children's online learning and entertainment, the centre offers resources to teach kids about digital citizenship and safety, and tools to help build healthy habits when using digital devices.

The Safer with Google programme aims to build a foundation of knowledge base and raise awareness among Internet users. The content from the programme will be useful to internet users of all ages in Việt Nam.

Trần Quang Hưng, director of the centre, said that it would accompany Google to develop and perfect the content suitable for Việt Nam. — VNS
