Safe Computing: Elevate Your Cybersecurity Standards
About Us
Our company ethos
Safe computing is the practice of protecting yourself, your data, and your devices from threats while using computers and the internet, encompassing skills like strong password management, using anti-virus software, being cautious of suspicious emails and links, enabling automatic software updates, and safeguarding personal information. It involves being aware of the security implications of your digital choices to reduce risks and maintain control over your digital environment.
Device security
Having a secure device means that you’ve taken steps to ensure that your computer can sufficiently protect the information that passes through it. The most important steps are to be rigorous about applying updates, to have an anti-virus, and to password protect your device.
Email security
If you make good security choices for a single online account, it should be your email. Your email account has special security needs because it can reset the password for almost any other account, it is where you’re exposed to most phishing attacks, and if compromised, it could be used to send malicious emails.
Safe browsing
Most of our exposure to digital risk happens on the internet. Clicking the wrong thing or going to the wrong site can be disastrous—So how do we know what is safe and what isn’t? A few general rules of thumb are to browse intentionally, to exercise reasonable suspicion, and to notice what “normal” looks like.
