Here are some steps you can take to protect yourself from malicious cyberbullying and stalking: 
- Create strong, unique passwords for all your accounts and use two-factor authentication wherever possible. 
- Resist the temptation to post personal information on social media, such as your address or phone number. 
- Limit who has access to your social media profiles by only accepting friend requests from people you know in real life.
- Update your privacy settings regularly so that old posts remain private, and limit who can see new posts.
 - Report any bullying or stalking behaviour you experience or witness immediately, either by blocking/ reporting through the appropriate medium (e.g., Instagram’s block / report function) or involving local law enforcement if necessary.

The best way to protect yourself from malicious cyberbullying and stalking is to be careful about what you share online. Consider using strong passwords, using two-factor authentication, and downloading anti-virus software. It is also important to read the terms of service for each website that you use and make sure that you adjust your privacy settings so that only approved people can see your personal information. Additionally, if you feel threatened or unsafe online, reach out to a trusted adult or report the incident(s) to the authorities.
