  2. Self Awareness • You should only access your accounts and private informations from a safe location (only at home as necessary if at all possible) where no stranger can either watch you or use the same computer. • Never give out your private personal information online or on the phone without knowing for certain that you are indeed dealing with a legitimate business that needs this information and safely destroy any financial documents or transaction receipts you don't need to keep anymore. • Phishing: If you get an email asking you to confirm your bank details, ignore it. It will 100% certain be a fake, as no bank will ask for details via email, and could be used to illegally access your account. If you get fooled into handing over your details, you should contact your bank immediately so that your account can be changed before any fraudsters can gain access\ and as things change all the time, keeping up to date is very important.

  3. Technology privileges • Firewall: It will not only protect you from outsiders trying to get in, but also tell you each program on your system that's trying to get out • Antivirus: To make sure that if you slip up, it will be there to catch any nasty worm trying to infect you • Antispyware: It works on programs that don't try to take over your system, but instead pop up ads and unwanted messages’ • Parental Control: . It is good for filtering out websites, blogs, e-mails and instant messages that might contain inappropriate wording • Regular Updates: Keep your software up to date, and use secure software • Browser: Turn off scripting, popups and ads in browser to block unwanted and possibly armful scripts • Backup: If you regularly make backup copies of your files and keep them in a separate place, you can get some, if not all, of your information back in the event something happens to the originals on your computer

  4. *Best Practice: • Limit user access to sensitive areas of the network, so users can only access specified areas as required by their job. • Ensure users have the correct hardware, resources and software in place to protect them against data breaches. • Educating users on organisation security policies and precautions, so they are aware of how data breaches can happen and the implications • Ensuring users log off their accounts, turn of computers and don’t share passwords with others to prevent people accessing data. • Plan backup and recovery strategy to ensure organisation functioning well. • Ask user to report immediately to network admin if they see something weird on your pc.
