Learn how to听beat cyber criminals to the punch by defending your devices. Keep your devices and networks secure with the following strategies:

1. Ensure that anti-virus/anti-malware software is running on all your personal devices, including Apple devices.
2. Make sure that all of your devices are secure when they are used.
   • Set a听PIN听(Personal Identification Number) or password required to access each device before using it.
   • Use听biometric logins听such as thumbprint readers or 3D face scanners (Windows Hello cameras, Apple Face ID, etc.) as convenient alternatives to your device鈥檚 pin for daily use - biometric logins are also harder to steal.
   • Ensure that each device鈥檚听storage is encrypted听in case the device is stolen.听This is usually a quick checkbox in a desktop or mobile device鈥檚 settings, and some devices (such as iOS devices) even encrypt drives automatically when you set a pin on the device.
3. Use a Virtual Private Network (VPN) on devices to protect your communications online.听
   • A听听is a听secure connection听you can think of as a tunnel between your device and particular location on the internet.
   • A VPN provides you with听additional security and privacy听while you are online because it can ensure all of your听data is secure and encrypted听before it reaches its destination.听
   • A VPN is particularly useful when you are听travelling or connecting to networks that are not your home network, especially when you are not sure if you can trust the network you are connecting to, such as an airport, hotel, or coffee shop Wi-Fi network.
   • When connecting to an unknown or untrustworthy network for personal use, we recommend the use of a personal VPN service (NordVPN, Surfshark, etc.).

4. Secure your home Wi-Fi to keep criminals out of your digital home.听
   • Network听devices (modems and routers) are likely the most underappreciated gadgets in your house. We usually only think of them when the Wi-Fi goes down, however, they are silent heroes, working behind the scenes while our other devices hog the spotlight.听听
   • The main threat against your home network is Wi-Fi听theft or access. Cyber criminals are capable of accessing your home network, particularly if you have it unsecured (not password听protected).
   • Recommendations to secure your home Wi-Fi network:
     • Consider where you place your router in your home:
       • Do not place it near a window or on the edge of the home.
       • Physical location determines not only how much coverage your home receives but also how far outside of your home your network can be accessed.
     • Ensure that you听change the default network name and password听whenever you set up a new home network:
       • Use a complex password that is unique to that network/
       • Default passwords are one of the most common ways home networks are compromised.
     • Keep all of your home network devices updated. Cyber criminals can access a vulnerable device that has not been updated, whether it is your Wi-Fi router, or smart home devices such as home security cameras and smart lightbulbs.
       • Devices should be selected which are easy to update and can prompt you when they need updates, or which do updates automatically and provide you a report.
     • Use a separate (or guest) network for your smart devices and for visitors.
       • Ensure that separate network has its own password, so that a visitor鈥檚 device, or a smart home device that missed an update does not provide access to the PCs and mobile devices that hold your personal information.
       • Keep devices with your personal information on the main home network and separate from other devices.
