The SafeTa Initiative
 
Providing Free Online Safety Guidance to Senior Communities

Our Mission

Over the years, we have heard story after story about an aging family member or older colleague that has been taken advantage of by cybercriminals. As security experts and dedicated members of our communities, we feel it is our social responsibility to teach the ones around us how to stay safe online. The SafeTa Initiative is our way to make an impact in the senior communities that will greatly benefit them now and for the years to come.

Who We Are

Hi, We're Wizer!

The SafeTa Initiative is a complimentary program that is funded by Wizer and fueled by their network of expert volunteers. Wizer is a security awareness provider offering commercial solutions for businesses and their employees.

 
 

How It Works

undraw_video_call_kxyp

Live Stream Presentation

We partner with security experts to create 30-minute presentations that provide participants with practical tips to avoid hacks and scams. We ensure that all information is focused and digestible so as to not overwhelm. All presentations will be live streamed through Zoom where participants can join as a group or individually. After the short presentation, we will open to a brief Q&A session to answer any questions. 

 
 

What We Teach

  • How To Spot A Scam
  • How To Protect My Devices
  • How To Protect My Information
  • Who Do I Reach Out To For Help
