6 Ways to Protect Yourself Against Cyber Attacks

    1. Update your software and operating systems.  Accept every update when offered – these provide the strongest, and most current, protection.

    3. Use strong, unique passwords across all your online accounts. Vary your use of capitalization, symbols, letters and numbers.

   

    4. Never open email attachments from unknown senders. These can download/install malware onto your device.
