In today’s hybrid work environment, many of us find ourselves working from hotels, coffee shops, airports, or other public places. While this flexibility is great, it’s crucial to protect the data on your screen from uninvited eyes. One simple yet effective solution is using a privacy screen. These screens limit the viewing angle of your device, so only the person directly in front of it can see the content. Privacy screens are available for most laptop models, tablets, and smartphones, making it easy to add an extra layer of security when working in public spaces. This small investment can help prevent accidental data leaks and ensure that sensitive information stays private. It’s a great habit to get into, especially if you frequently handle confidential data or work in crowded areas. When security is a priority, taking these small steps can help you work more confidently, no matter where you are. #CyberSecurityTips #CyberSecurityAwarenessMonth #WorkFromAnywhere

Coming up with strong, memorable passwords can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be. One fun and effective strategy is using the first letters of a favorite song lyric as the basis for your password. The more obscure the song, the better! For example, you could use “Row, row, row your boat” and turn it into *rrr3ybg27dts. By adding numbers or special characters that have meaning to you, you can create a password that is both secure and easy to recall. Alternatively, consider using passphrases instead of traditional passwords. Passphrases combine random words with numbers, making them easier to remember yet difficult for hackers to crack. An example might be: “Bird365west097golf.” These phrases are often easier to memorize compared to complex passwords with random characters. Plus, they can be tailored to fit your own memory tricks, making them a great option for everyday use. Both strategies—song lyrics and passphrases—offer a level of personalization that makes them difficult for attackers to guess. And don't forget to use different passwords for different accounts, especially for work versus personal use. A password manager can also help you store complex passwords securely, so you don’t have to worry about remembering them all. Strong passwords are a critical part of protecting sensitive information and avoiding security breaches.
