As the internet continues to grow and offer a wealth of information to people around the world, so does the importance of protecting personal information and children and teens from potential internet predators. In addition to identity theft and credit card fraud, new issues affecting teens, such as sexting, cyberbullying, and  managing online profiles are at the forefront of internet safety concerns. Terry Goddard and the Arizona Attorney General’s Office are committed to protecting children from online predators and to providing resources to help individuals best protect their information online. To that end, the Attorney General’s Office is a member of the Arizona Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (AZ ICAC), which is made up of investigators representing 53 Arizona law enforcement agencies.

Together, the Arizona Attorney General’s Office and the AZICAC have produced materials for adults and teens with tips to help spot potential internet predators and how to best protect your personal information on the world wide web. Check them out below:
