Welcome to your Digital MOT

The Digital MOT is a cyber security assessment tool developed by the Community Safety Unit at Derbyshire County Council, in partnership with the Cybercrime Unit at Derbyshire Constabulary.

It will take less than 5 minutes to complete the MOT and find out how to be safer online.

Phones, computers and tablets are part of everyday life - online banking, shopping, email and social media. But the longer you spend online, the more risks you are exposed to. So it's more important than ever to take steps to protect your accounts, data and devices from cyber criminals.

By answering a few simple questions, we'll tell you the most important things you can do to protect yourself online.

We'll email your personalised results in a colour-coded way, so


Red

is an alert and means you need to take urgent action to protect yourself online.


Amber

is action that you are advised to take to keep yourself safe online.


Green

means you have already taken the most important steps to protect yourself online, but there may be more you could do.

Answer all the questions in the Digital MOT to find out how you can be safer online.

If you would like help or support to access the Digital MOT, you can book a one-to-one session through the Derbyshire Library Information Service, email: ask.library@derbyshire.gov.uk or tel: 01629 533444.

Derbyshire Libraries have also produced a video demonstration of how to complete the Digital MOT.
