Password Management:
Do not use the same password for multiple accounts. Use long phrases or complex passwords instead of simple dictionary words. Use a password that includes special characters, numbers, uppercase and lowercase letters.
Consider using a password manager that generates a unique, strong password for each application you use.
Another benefit of such services is that you only need to remember one master password.
The rest is securely stored and can be used whenever you log in to a specific webpage. Never share your login credentials with third parties. Analyze email headers to verify the true sender.
Never click on links in emails from unverified senders.
Be cautious when sharing personal information on social media (especially DOB, address or photos).
Criminals often use publicly available information to create synthetic IDs for online fraud.
Do not accept delivery if the package appears damaged or opened.
Be aware of using public Wi-Fi: publicly accessible Wi-Fi networks are vulnerable;
cybercriminals can easily intercept your data.
If you need internet access on the go, it's safer to use your mobile network.
If you must shop online and mobile data is unavailable, use a VPN (virtual private network).
VPNs encrypt the connection between your device and the VPN server,
making it very difficult for hackers to intercept your data.
