Basic Rules For Internet Safety

  • Be careful when connecting to Wi-Fi.

Use a strong password when setting up your home Wi-Fi router. You should come up with a unique network name so that it is not clear which network belongs to your house or apartment – this is important to counteract hackers. If you are using a public Wi-Fi network, you should make sure that your connection is secure so that hackers don’t hack into your relationship and steal your personal information.

  • Protect your online presence

When entering information on the Internet, you should pay attention to where you enter your information and which tabs you should not open. For a comfortable exchange of information, check the privacy settings on the device. Remember what kind of data the method requests when connecting.

It happens that sets a unique password is not enough to ensure security on the Internet. Hackers can guess your password or answer security questions correctly. Therefore, you should use an additional layer of protection – two-step authentication. You can use 2-Step Verification for your Apple ID in Settings to enhance your or your business’s security.
