What many people seem to forget is that the first line of defense against a cyber attack or breach on your account is yourself. Utilizing an array of complex passwords may seem like a hassle and may seem too arduous a task to put forth into action, but in reality it could be the very password that you’re being too lackadaisical about that is truly jeopardizing your account information.

Take the extra time to come up with different passwords for your different online accounts that contain multiple characters, numbers, and letters. A stronger password means a heftier first layer of protection between you and the cyber thief.

Oh, and don’t forget to keep your passwords to yourself … Cyber security starts with YOU.
