In business today, technology plays a big role. Unfortunately, by using technology, each individual has to make security considerations. This is because there are more cyberattacks today than ever before. To keep business rolling effectively, today’s workers must carefully consider and understand their role in their organization’s cybersecurity initiatives. In today’s blog, we look at four ways they can do just that.
Employees need to ensure that each of their online accounts has a strong, unique password to reduce the risk of hacking. Password managers are a great way to help create and manage these passwords securely. Additionally, everyone will want to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) wherever possible for an extra layer of protection.
Phishing scams often come via email, text, or fake websites that look legitimate. Avoid clicking on unsolicited links or downloading attachments from unknown sources. Always verify the URL of a website before entering personal information, and hover over links to see the actual destination. Trustworthy websites typically start with "https," indicating secure encryption.
Regularly update your browser, operating system, and any software you use to ensure you have the latest security patches. Outdated software can leave vulnerabilities that hackers can exploit. Many programs offer automatic updates, an easy way to stay protected without manual effort.
When accessing the internet through public Wi-Fi networks, such as at cafes or airports, use a VPN to encrypt your internet traffic. Public Wi-Fi is often unsecured, making it easier for attackers to intercept your data. A VPN helps protect your privacy by masking your location and encrypting your online activities.
Protecting your business requires care and consideration, and the IT professionals at Atech MSP can help. Call us today at (888) 814-4843 to learn how we can help.
