Cybersecurity Awareness Tips
With October being Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we wanted to share these best practices for keeping your digital assets protected.
Update software: Install updates promptly on all devices. Don’t click “Remind me later.” Updates patch vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit. Turn on automatic updates whenever possible.
Use strong passwords and a password manager: Create passwords that are at least 16 characters long, random (including mixed case letters, numbers, and symbols), and unique for each account. Use a password manager to generate, fill, and remember them for you.
Turn on multifactor authentication (MFA) wherever possible: MFA adds an extra layer of security to your accounts. Use it everywhere it’s offered, and choose the most secure method available, such as a passkey or authenticator app.
Recognize and report phishing: Stay alert for suspicious messages. Always verify the sender before clicking links or opening attachments. If you spot a scam, use the platform’s “Report Phishing” tool.
