Abstract

The massive use of information and communication technologies (ICT) has brought about a result to which educational systems cannot stand on the sidelines: the question of computer security. The present work is based upon the need to incorporate this theme not only in the teacher training but also in the last stages of secondary education, taking into account that many students are early incorporated into the labour market after that educational stage.
Such training, to become a real tool, should be pursued in two instances: awareness and training.
In this sense, it’s mentioned in this article an experience developed with students of the basic university cycle, which provides them with the appropriate information to warn that the computer security is linked with the greater part of its activities not only student or labour but also personal.
