Staying safe online
Most of us use the internet every day, which can make us forget about online risks.
Here are a few ways you and your family can stay safe:
- Check your social media security settings so that you can control who has access to your personal information, photographs and updates.
- For all equipment and all accounts, choose strong passwords and change them regularly.
- Watch out for ‘phishing’ emails. These are usually messages that appear to be from your bank asking you to validate or give security details. If in doubt, ring your bank to check whether it has sent the email.
