Sažetak
The pilot research aimed to assess the digital competencies and information security knowledge of primary school students in the district of the Educational District Center of North Budapest, Hungary. This research was a quantitative study based on a questionnaire, and a total of 952 responses were received. The research examined the issue from three different perspectives. Data were received from the parents of the children, the educators, and the children themselves. The results of the research showed that children have their favourite applications, parents try to adapt to the challenges, and teachers are uncertain and expect help. The students have some digital competencies, but there are still many shortcomings in terms of information security knowledge. Based on the results, it is recommended to pay more attention to information security education both in schools and in home education by parents. Additionally, there is a need to improve educational materials and tools. This study presents the findings of the research.
