The internet has made communication, banking, learning and business much easier. However, as more activities move online, internet users also need to protect themselves from scams and cyber threats. One of the simplest ways to stay safe online is to use strong and unique passwords for important accounts. Avoid sharing passwords, PINs or verification codes with anyone. You should also be careful when clicking unfamiliar links received through email, WhatsApp, SMS or social media. Fraudsters often create messages designed to look genuine in order to obtain personal information. Keeping your devices and applications updated can also help protect you from security risks.
At Izugod Computers, we believe that learning how to use technology safely is just as important as learning how to use it.
