Palmetto Care Connections (PCC) CEO Kathy Schwarting and Chief Technology Officer Matt Hiatt recently met with SC Rep. Jeff Bradley (R-Beaufort County), chairman of the South Carolina Senate’s Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity Committee. The meeting focused on PCC’s ongoing efforts to promote safe and accessible technology use across South Carolina.
During the conversation, Schwarting and Hiatt shared an overview of PCC’s mobile app and introduced SC Rep. Bradley to the Internet Safety Module, an educational tool that teaches users how to protect themselves while navigating the online world. This free, user-friendly course offers practical tips on recognizing online scams, creating strong passwords, and understanding privacy settings—key skills for anyone using the internet today.
SC Rep. Bradley expressed interest in the module’s potential to help bridge the digital literacy gap, particularly in rural and underserved communities. As chairman of the Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity Committee, he emphasized the importance of proactive cybersecurity education and praised PCC’s work in this area.
