| Staying safe online doesn’t need to be complicated. A few small habits can make a big difference in protecting your personal information and keeping your connection secure. |
| What to keep in mind |
|---|
| Use strong, secure passwords Create passwords that are long and hard to guess, using a mix of letters, numbers and symbols. Avoid using the same password across different accounts. |
| Keep your Wi Fi access private Only share your Wi Fi password with people you trust, and avoid using default or easy-to-guess passwords for your network. |
| Think before you click If you receive an unexpected email, text or message asking you to click a link or share information, take a moment to check it carefully. It’s best not to click links or download attachments unless you’re sure they’re genuine. |
| Look out for anything unusual Be wary of messages that feel urgent, unfamiliar or too good to be true. Checking the sender’s details and taking a moment before responding can help you avoid scams. |
| If in doubt, ignore it It’s OK to simply ignore the message, and then directly contact the organisation or person you think a scammer may be impersonating – just make sure you do this by opening a new window or tab. |
| Still not sure? Do a quick search If you’re unsure, performing a quick search online to double check on what scams or spam messages are currently in circulation can help. |
| What do you need to do? |
| There’s nothing specific you need to do today. These are general tips to help you stay safe while using your service. Just remember – think before you click. |
