"Digital Security and Droppering"

On November 12, 2026, organized by the Department of "Chemical Disciplines, Biology and Biochemistry", an educational and legal event on the topic "Digital Security and Droppering" was held. The event was attended by the Head of the Department of "Chemical Disciplines, Biology and Biochemistry", Acting Professor K.N. Daurenbekov, senior lecturers, and students of groups BM-SKB-04-26, ВM-MkКB-06-26, ВM-SKкB-03-26, and ВM-SKкA-03-26. Kuralbek Shekerezada, a lawyer and speaker of the ZAN PROTECT company, was specially invited as a guest speaker. The purpose of the event is to explain to students and youth ways to protect personal data in the digital environment, prevent online fraud schemes, and increase financial literacy. During the meeting, participants comprehensively discussed cybersecurity and the concept of "droppering". Through concrete examples, it was explained how malicious actors involve young people in illegal financial transactions—schemes for cashing out stolen funds (either intentionally or out of unawareness). In addition, special attention was paid to the strict legal liability stipulated by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan for transferring bank cards or accounts to third parties and participating in dubious operations. During the event, participants exchanged views on maintaining digital hygiene, strictly protecting personal data, and taking necessary precautions to avoid falling into scammers' traps, as well as received legal advice. This event significantly contributed to improving the legal and financial literacy of students, developing critical thinking, and fostering a culture of responsible behavior in the digital environment. At the end of the meeting, participants shared their thoughts, realizing that maintaining cybersecurity and financial discipline is a primary duty for every conscious citizen.
