Training on the utilization of information technology and the use of digital safety in Cimaranten Village, Kuningan Regency, aims to improve the digital literacy of the community and increase awareness and skills in maintaining digital security.

The methodology used in this training includes preliminary studies, activity planning, development of training materials, training implementation, evaluation, and monitoring. A study was performed to find out the needs and initial conditions of the community. The results of the training showed a significant increase in digital literacy and understanding of digital security among participants. Before the training, most participants had a very basic understanding of information technology and were unaware of digital security risks. After the training, participants were able to use digital devices for daily purposes and had a better understanding of how to protect themselves from digital crime. Participant satisfaction evaluation showed that 80% understood digital literacy, 84% mastered information technology and 76% understood digital safety, in addition to the participants felt that the material presented was very useful and the teaching methods were effective.
