WAYS TO PROTECT YOUR

DATA FROM HACKING

Do not Claim your winnings or log onto Internet banking via email

Cybercriminals and attackers often hide malware in links in either emails or text messages. Clicking on these links can install malicious software that compromises your computer and gives hackers access to all of your data. These emails are often very

convincing, so it pays to be aware.

Also, your bank will never email you and ask

you to click on a link to log into online banking

via email, so never trust such emails.

Make sure you do not Procrastinate your backup

Backups are time consuming, but putting off your backup until tomorrow or the next day could have devastating consequences.

Ensure that backup is completed at least

once a day, if not more, using an automated

backup solution. Identify critical resources, ensure

that they are included in backup policies, and importantly, test

your backup and restore capabilities frequently to ensure that

they are working correctly before a disaster

strikes.

Social media has changed the way we interact with each other, and many people feel that there’s no such thing as too many friends on Facebook. However, making friends with people you don’t know can be a dangerous practice.

Cybercriminals use social media to spread viruses, perpetrate fraud, distribute spam and phishing messages, and even gather information that can be used for identity theft.

Do not accept friend requests from people you don’t know

Wi-Fi hotspots are a free, convenient and ever more accessible way of accessing the Internet in public places. However, it needs to be remembered that these hotspots are free to access, which means that they are not encrypted and are typically not secured. Sending

confidential information over these channels

leaves it open to theft and access by

unwanted eyes.

If you are going to use an unknown network, it is advisable to use a secured https connection or a Wi-Fi privacy application, which will ensure that your connection over public Wi-Fi is secured, helping to protect data.

Do not Send confidential data over free Wi-Fi

Passwords are surprisingly easy to crack, as most users will choose

an easy to remember password about

something that is close to them, like a

friend’s name. Many people also re-use

the same password on multiple sites and

write their passwords down.

Make sure your password is strong by

using at least eight characters and a

combination of letters, numbers and symbols.

Avoiding these simple mistakes can go a long way in protecting your data.

CHECK yourself- Are you using weak passwords and the same password for multiple sites?
