Basic cyberhygiene to
prevent yourself
from getting hacked
Use strong passwords
Create strong and unique passwords for
all your accounts, and avoid using the
same password for multiple accounts.
Consider using a password manager to
generate and store complex passwords
Secure your devices
Ensure that your devices, such as computers, smartphones, and
tablets, have strong passwords and are protected with up-to-date
security software. Enable two-factor authentication whenever
possible. This adds an extra layer of security to your login process.
Be cautious with emails and links
Do not open emails or click links from
unknown sources, as these may contain
malware or phishing attempts.
Be especially wary of emails that ask for
personal or financial information.
Use secure websites
Only access financial accounts through
secure websites, and look for the "https"
in the URL and a lock symbol in the
browser to indicate a secure connection
Avoid public Wi-Fi
Avoid using public Wi-Fi networks to access
sensitive information, as they may not be secure.
If you need to access your financial accounts
while on the go, use a virtual private network
(VPN) to encrypt your connection
Keep software up-to-date
Regularly update the software on
your devices, as these updates
often include security patches for
known vulnerabilities
Monitor your accounts
Regularly monitor your accounts
for any suspicious activity and
report any unauthorized
transactions immediately
Educate yourself
Stay informed about the latest
cyber threats and educate
yourself on how to protect your
personal and financial information
