October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, it’s the perfect moment to revisit how your team protects sensitive data.
Here’s a staggering fact: Cyber criminals launch a new attack somewhere on the internet every 39 seconds. That means dozens of attacks can happen during a single meeting.
Strong security practices are most effective when they become part of your agency’s everyday routine.
These best practices can include:
- using unique, complex passwords for each system.
- enabling two-factor authentication whenever possible.
- staying alert to suspicious emails or links that could be phishing attempts.
- avoid sharing logins
- make it a habit to log out of systems when stepping away from a device.
