The results are in from the EDUCAUSE Security Task Force’s Computer Security Awareness Video Contest. Topics covered include spyware, phishing, and patching. The winning video, Superhighway Safety, uses a simple running metaphor, a steady beat, and stark visual effects to concisely convey the dangers to online computing as well as the steps one can take to protect his or her computer and personal information.

The videos are available for educational, noncommercial use, provided that each is identified as being a winning entry in the contest. In addition to being great educational/awareness tools, they should serve as inspiration for K-12 schools as well as colleges and universities.
