Cybersecurity Awareness Month Reminder!
Strong security doesn’t happen by accident. It comes from consistent, everyday actions. Four simple steps make the difference between a safe account and a compromised one:
Use strong, unique passwords – avoid repeats, and avoid adding any personal details to your passwords that can be traced back to you through free and available information that can be found online (like accessible CVs that can include sensitive information, Instagram, or other online social media profiles.)
Turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA) – your best defense against stolen credentials.
Recognize and report phishing attempts – pause before you click, and report any suspicious emails to your IT Security Team.
Keep devices updated – patches close the door on known vulnerabilities. Update your devices regularly and whenever a new security update is available.
Cyber threats grow more sophisticated every day. These habits, when practiced widely, strengthen not only individual safety but collective resilience.
This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, let’s treat these practices not as optional extras, but as daily essentials.
