Cybersecurity Essentials for Everyone


Introduction
In today’s digital age, cybersecurity is no longer optional. With hackers constantly
devising new methods, staying safe online is a must.
Content
1. Strong Passwords:
o Use passwords with at least 12 characters, mixing letters, numbers,
and symbols.
o Avoid common words and use a password manager to generate and
store them securely.
2. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):
o Add an extra layer of security by linking your accounts to a phone
number or app like Google Authenticator.
3. Phishing Scams:
o Be wary of emails or messages that urge immediate action, offer deals
that are too good to be true, or come from unknown sources.
4. Safe Browsing:
o Always check the URL; secure sites start with “https.”

o Avoid downloading files or software from untrusted websites.

5. Antivirus and Firewalls:


o Install reliable antivirus software and keep it updated.

o Turn on your device’s firewall for additional protection.
