CRIME PREVENTION TIPS
Cyber Crime Security (Part One):
  • Use Strong Passwords- Use different user ID/password combinations for other accounts and avoid writing them down.  Make the passwords more complicated by combining letters, numbers, special characters (minimum of 10 characters in total) and changing them regularly.
  • Secure Your Computer- Activate your firewall. Firewalls are the first line of cyber defense. They block connections to unknown or bogus sites and keep out some types of viruses and hackers.
  • Use anti-virus/malware software- Prevent viruses from infecting your computer by installing and regularly updating anti-virus software.
  • Block spyware attacks- Prevent spyware from infiltrating your computer by installing and updating anti-spyware software.
  • Be Social-Media Savvy- Make sure your social networking profiles (E.G. Facebook, Twitter) are set to private. Be careful about what information you post online.
