Strengthen Your Cyber Defences Today

We’ve put together simple ways you can begin enhancing your cyber security.

1. Stay On Top of Updates for Software and Operating Systems
   Installing updates should be a priority across your devices. They address security weaknesses, and without them you’re left vulnerable to cyber threats. To simplify this process, you can turn on automatic updates.
2. Avoid Weak Passwords
   Weak passwords leave your accounts vulnerable, which can lead to identity theft, financial loss, and data breaches. If you’ve reused passwords, cyber criminals can also use your credentials to access other accounts. Creating strong, unique passwords is essential to keep your accounts secure and to protect your personal information. Passwords should be more than 14 characters, comprise of uppercase and lowercase letters, symbols, and numbers, and not use easily guessed information (e.g., the names or initials of people close to you or pets, key dates, addresses, 1234 or qwerty, etc.) You should review accounts to see whether you’ve reused passwords or used weak passwords, and update them.
   
3. Use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
   This is the critical second step to secure your accounts. MFA is used alongside a password, requiring an additional form of verification to access accounts. It may take the form of biometrics, a code sent to your email or phone, or an authenticator app. When you use this powerful security measure, cyber criminals can’t log in to your accounts even if they have obtained your credentials.
4. Don’t Interact with Suspicious Emails
   If you’ve received an email that feels off, it’s likely a phishing email. These threats involve cyber criminals posing as trusted organisations (like Microsoft, Apple, PayPal, or Amazon), and aim to capture personal information, financial details, or login credentials. They may also prompt you to click on a malicious link. These scams attempt to mimic the genuine look and feel of the business they’re impersonating, which can make them harder to spot. Look out for emails that pressure you to take action out of the blue, strange links or attachments, incorrect email domains, or poor spelling and grammar.
