SAIT Update 10.05.2020
October is cybersecurity month
📱 5 tips to be secure on social
Level up your security on social media with these tips from SAIT expert George Chase.
- Use different passwords for different social media websites. Don’t use your work email for any social media site.
- Don’t give out personal information, like your birthday. If a website asks for your birthday to create an account, make something up instead.
- Some websites ask for your email before you can access content. Create an email address just for that purpose, and don’t use it for anything other than website registrations.
- Use your favourite search engine to search your name, email address and social media usernames to see what someone could find out about you with a basic search — you may be surprised.
- Be careful about the comments you leave on websites — you may respond impulsively and regret the tone or content of the message later.
