ENHANCING YOUR EMAIL SECURITY
Richard Huggins
Enhancing your email security is essential to protecting personal and sensitive information. Emails are a common target for phishing, malware and other cyber threats.
Consider these key practices to enhance your email security:
-
- Use Strong, Unique Passwords - Use a password manager and avoid reusing passwords.
- Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) - Choose a 2FA and set it up for all accounts.
- Be Cautious with Email Attachments and Links - Verify the sender, scan attachments, and don't click on suspicious links.
- Keep Your Email Software Update - Enable automatic updates.
- Use Encryption for Sensitive Emails - Encrypt emails containing sensitive information and educate recipients.
- Watch Your Email Activity - Set up activity alerts, regularly review account activity, and respond quickly to suspicious activity.
