Surfshark has introduced a free scam-spotting online course aimed at helping users recognize and avoid the most common online scams. The course focuses on addressing the “human factor,” often seen as the weakest link in cybersecurity. While tools like VPNs, antivirus, and identity protection services enhance online security, Surfshark acknowledges that human errors are still a major risk. This course spreads awareness about online threats, educating users on how to stay safe from scams across different platforms.

Surfshark hopes this initiative will empower individuals to better protect themselves against online threats by recognizing suspicious activity early.
