October is cyber security awareness month.
Here are some ways you can help cyber awareness:
- Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (if it is not already)
- Don't open emails that you don't know who they're from, if you don't know ask the IT help desk
- Don't go clicking on random websites or ads, many of them have malicious viruses (malware) attached
- Be careful of "free WiFi", criminals can see you on there and get your information
- Create a strong password and don't use the same password for every site, especially your bank websites
- The best offense is a good defense, keep all your apps and anti-virus software up to date, but don't rely on them
It is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to your personal info!
