1. Use VPNs (Virtual Private Networks). They extend your network protection past your private network when you’re on other sites.
2. Always verify financial transactions with a manager before taking any action or sending funds.
3. Verify informational transactions with a manager. Never send sensitive data or passwords.
4. Use caution when shopping or banking online for the company, only use company-sanctioned secure devices that belong to you and secure WiFi/networks when handling these tasks.
5. Be careful about what you share on social media. Whether you are on a personal or work account, criminals can gain insights from sensitive data you share that can help them target you.
