This abstract outlines a comprehensive approach to fostering cybersecurity awareness tailored specifically for parents' and women' in Bangladesh. With the escalating prevalence of cyber threats in the digital age, it has become imperative to prioritize cybersecurity awareness among diverse demographics, including parents and women. It discusses the importance of understanding online threats, safety measures, and the role of education in promoting a digital environment. Therefore, our study aims to investigate the extent to which parents and women are aware of cybersecurity. A sample of 698 parents, including 410 males and 296 females, was targeted through an online questionnaire. From the data gathered, it was found that parents have a good understanding of cyber threats and are committed to safeguarding their family members from such dangers. However, this knowledge needs to be translated into action by both parents and authorities through concrete steps.
