PROTECTING
REPUTATIONS
ONLINE
Statement: Anything that we
post online can be
viewed or seen by
almost anyone.
How can we
protect
ourselves?
1. Conduct a Simple
Google Search: Ideally you must try to
search your name on
google at least once a
month for you to
determine if there will be
negative search results
about yourself.
2. Setup a comprehensive
Google Alert:
Google will notify you
of stories, posts,
comments, etc. as long
as your name is
associated with it.
3. Take advantage of people
search tools:

You may use


pipl.com, it will do a
thorough search on
you.
4. Don’t allow anyone to tag you pictures
or posts that might damage your
reputation:
Immediately ask the person
to untagged or take down
the post you were tagged
into because it might give
your image a bad reputation.
5. Think twice before you post:
Once posted
something online we
no longer have the
control on it.
6. Avoid copyright infringement:
let us avoid copying the
work of other people
because it is possible for
us to face copyright
infringement resulting
into imprisonment and a
fine.
