Staying ahead of cybercriminals

Stay ahead of hackers and cybercriminals by understanding the

tactics they use to access your private data.

Ensure your software is up to date

Cybercriminals rely heavily upon software or platform vulnerabilities,

as they are the easiest way to sneak malware into a user's device

unnoticed, sometimes with little action on the user's part. Immediately

after a software manufacturer announces an update, hackers are

ready with malware that can breach holes in the software that would

have been patched if the update was installed.

How to stay safe: Perform any and all software updates as soon as

they are available.

colleague that you know but seem a little odd. Maybe they didn't

capitalize your name or there are misspellings. The email might be

from cybercriminals who are trying to fool you into sending them your

credit card number, social security number, or logging into a fake

bank website that looks like yours but really isn't.

How to stay safe: Use a strong antispam filter. If an email looks

strange, don't click on anything and delete it immediately. Instead

manually launch a browser and type in your bank's website address
