Strengthening its commitment to a safer, more informed, and responsible community, personnel of the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group (ACG) Mountain Province Provincial Cyber Response Team (MPPCRT) participated in the Gender and Development (GAD) Seminar conducted by Sabangan National High School at Tambingan, Nacagang, Sabangan, Mountain Province.
The MPPCRT highlighted the mandate of the ACG and provided practical guidance on cybercrime prevention, cybersecurity, and responsible digital practices, including protecting personal information, online accounts, finances, and digital identity. Participants were reminded to remain vigilant against suspicious messages, links, online transactions, and requests for sensitive information, as well as the importance of preserving digital evidence and reporting incidents through proper channels.
The discussion also covered Republic Act No. 10627, or the Anti-Bullying Act of 2013, including traditional bullying and cyberbullying, their causes and effects, and their impact on the safety, dignity, well-being, and learning environment of students. A brief discussion on Nihilism encouraged participants to reflect on the importance of values, responsibility, empathy, and respect in preventing destructive attitudes and behavior.
The activity underscored that community safety requires awareness, vigilance, responsible decision-making, and respect for others both online and offline. Through sustained information dissemination and community engagement, the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group remains committed to empowering individuals to become informed, vigilant, responsible, and digitally resilient members of society.
