Scott Driscoll has been in law enforcement for 22+ years. For the majority of his career, he has worked with the youth in his community to help them stay safe. Many years ago, Mr. Driscoll began teaching elementary school children about the dangers of the Internet. Seeing the growing need and concern for Internet safety, Mr. Driscoll developed programs for middle school and high school students as well as parents.

As a law enforcement officer, Mr. Driscoll has taken part in numerous Internet crime investigations. Some of the crimes were undercover on-line investigations, possession and distribution of child pornography, on-line bullying and harassment, identity theft, enticement of minors and many others. Along with on-line investigations, Mr. Driscoll also has done forensic computer examinations for law enforcement agencies and instructs fellow law enforcement officials on how to use the Internet for investigations.

As a parent, Mr. Driscoll is also aware of the concerns that parents face every day. While speaking to parents, it became very clear that they needed this education to help keep their children safe. With firsthand knowledge of Internet crimes and the dangers of the world wide web, Mr. Driscoll started Internet Safety Concepts. Through presentations, Internet Safety Concepts teaches people of all ages how to stay safe while on-line.

Mr. Driscoll has presented Internet safety topics at numerous conferences including:

           9th Annual Melanie Ilene Rieger Memorial
           10th Annual Children, Youth and the Police Conference
           Take Back the Night, University of New Haven
           Several 4H events throughout Connecticut
           12 Annual Law Enforcement Conference, Connecticut
           48th Annual Connecticut Recreation and Parks Association Conference
           Connecticut Children's Medical Center, Mental Health Lecture Series, 2008-2009

           Family University, Stonington (Keynote)
           Kaleidoscope Series, Bay Path College
           A Piece of the Prevention Puzzle Conference
  

On a regular basis, Mr. Driscoll gives presentations about Internet safety to parents, civic groups, school administrators, teachers and children.
 
In November 2010, Scott's first book, co authored by Laurie Gifford Adams, was published. The book "www.R U In Danger.net" is a guide for families and educators on what dangers lurk on the Internet and how we can all be safe.

The Internet is not going to go away; however, with awareness and education we can make the Internet a safer place.

Scott’s honest and candid demeanor and very relevant presentation were engaging and impactful. Invaluable experience!
