Abstract
The rapid development of digital technology has provided numerous benefits as well as increasing information security risks, particularly among university students as active digital users. This community service activity aimed to provide fundamental understanding about malware threats and their prevention to new students of the Information Systems Study Program at UIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin Jambi. The activity was conducted through an educational-participatory socialization method using presentation media, followed by discussion and question–answer sessions. The event took place on September 18, 2025, involving 25 new students. Based on observations, participants demonstrated high enthusiasm and were able to comprehend the delivered material. This activity contributed to raising initial awareness among students about digital security and the importance of safe behavior in using information technology within academic settings.
