Moonshot, a global leader in fighting online dangers, has just launched an online guide to help people spot fake news before the European Elections. You can find this guide on the EU Prebunking site. It has videos and resources to teach you how to recognize and deal with false information and manipulation.

Moonshot, an international company with offices in Dublin, was co-founded by Ross Frenett from Cobh, Cork. His presentation at TechFest 2022 in Cork was memorable, showing Moonshot's dedication to making the internet safer. Aoife Long, the Cyber Skills Education and Public Engagement Manager, attended the event and said, “I found his talk fascinating, especially how technology can be combined with his understanding of counter-terrorism to protect citizens.”

You can learn more about Moonshot and their projects on their website.

The ENISA Threat Landscape 2023 report has identified information manipulation as a major threat. ENISA, the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity, regularly publishes these reports to inform industry professionals about current threats and emphasize the need for vigilance and proactive measures against cyber threats.
