How can I protect myself against cybercrime?

There are several ways to protect yourself against cybercrime, including using strong passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and being cautious with emails and links.

What are strong passwords and how do I create one?

Strong passwords are typically at least 12 characters long and include a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using easily guessable information like birthdays.

What is two-factor authentication?

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security by requiring not just a password but also a second form of verification, like a text message code.

How can I recognize phishing emails?

Look for signs like poor grammar, generic greetings, and suspicious links. Always verify the sender's email address before clicking on any links.
