DO YOUR PART, BE CYBERSMART: HOW CYBER HYGIENE CAN PROTECT YOU

October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM), so now is a great time to focus on ways to protect and secure your cyberspace. Throughout the month, the Hagerty Cyber Team will provide educational resources with the goal of increasing individual and business cybersecurity awareness in a world where cyber hygiene and security online is essential.

Today, you likely have access to an Internet-connected device. This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most workplaces have gone partially or fully virtual; so, you likely have more than one device storing personal and/or sensitive information online. While your Internet-connected devices may vary (e.g., laptops, desktops, cellphones), if you apply basic principles of vigilance and protection, they can all be better prepared to safeguard against malicious activity.
