Information security expert warned Stefan Stingl of greater openness in the exchange ofpersonal information through social networking, especially for children, stressing the need to remind them of safe ways to deal with it.

He explained to the German news agency that the danger is that anyone can publish a lot of information about himself without thinking of the consequences of such as to fall victim to a scam or physical assault.

The Stingl - who works in the "Click sword" of the European Union aimed at achieving theSafe Browsing the Internet - it must always review the safety rules in the use of the Internetwith the children so they can better protect themselves, "but it was more important that children themselves aware of the risks, and to take precautionary measures when you surf the web. "

And advised parents to monitor their children while surfing the Internet, but withoutsurreptitiously learn their statements recorded on the social networking sites.

He believes that the basic rules is the need not to publish the addresses and phone numbers and personal e-mail addresses posted on Facebook, and preferably also not to publish any information about the family or the health status of the user.
