AB This paper focuses on teacher training students' gender-based attitudes towards selected cyber threats. First, the context of cyber threat and its role in contemporary education is provided. This is followed by the sub-results of a research survey focused on the attitudes and experiences of teacher training students towards selected forms of cyber threats. Among the forms of cyber threats, risk phenomena such as cyber-bullying, cyber grooming, sexting, cyberstalking and hate speech were selected. The results show slight gender differences among teacher training student attitudes towards the selected cyber threats. However, females highlight a slightly higher level of the need for cybersecurity in the items examined.
