Abstract

The objective was to determine the relationship between the digital education topics addressed during the learning of obstetric students and the perception of the security of their information during the virtual education developed because of COVID-19 at the Santiago Antúnez of Mayolo National University (UNASAM) (Huaraz-Peru). It was a cross-sectional research carried out with 179 students, using a previously validated online questionnaire. The SPSS program and the Chi square test (p < 0.05) were used. The majority of obstetric students (64.8%) denied having developed the digital education topics consulted during the virtual learning sessions, mainly in the establishment of secure keys (83.8%) and the protection of confidentiality (82.7%); also evidencing a majority perception of insecurity regarding the safeguarding of their academic information on the Internet. It was concluded that there is a statistically significant relationship between the insufficient explanation of digital education topics during the learning of obstetric students and the high perception of insecurity of their information during virtual education developed because of COVID-19.
