June is National Internet Safety Month. It's a great time to ensure we're protected in the digital world.
Here are some essential tips to keep top of mind while navigating the vast virtual landscape:
- Guard Your Personal Information: Be cautious about sharing sensitive data online. Keep your full name, address, phone number and financial details private.
- Create Strong, Unique Passwords: Use complex combinations of letters, numbers and symbols for your passwords. Avoid using easily guessable information like your birthday or pet's name.
- Watch Out for Phishing Attempts: Be alert for suspicious emails, text messages or links that ask for personal information. Be skeptical of unsolicited communications, even if they seem legitimate.
- Keep Your Devices Secure: Install and regularly update the software on all your devices to ensure you have the latest security patches.
- Educate Yourself and Others: Stay informed about the latest online threats and best practices and share your knowledge to create a safer digital community.
Working together we can make the internet a little safer for everyone to learn, shop, explore and connect.
