OCTOBER IS CYBER SECURITY AWARENESS MONTH

PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH THESE TIPS


Be Wary of WiFi

Don't join unknown WiFi networks. Hackers sometimes set up WiFi networks to capture and store what users send, including their IDs and passwords.

Don't Assume Privacy on Social Media

Don’t e-mail, Tweet, or post to Facebook anything you wouldn't want made public. Period.


Don't Open Suspicious E-mail

Be suspicious of any e-mail unless you know who sent it and have reason to expect the e-mail. Hackers can make an e-mail look like it came from anyone.


Protect Your Credit

Many financial institutions offer a feature where they will send you an e-mail whenever there is a large transaction (charge, withdrawal, etc.) against your account. Consider enabling that option. If someone illegitimately accesses your account, you will learn about it quickly.
