Tips on Staying Safe Online

Tips on Staying Safe Online

These days we’re spending more time than ever online and recent numbers show the average Brit spends more than 30 hours a month surfing the internet.

It’s important to stay safe when you are doing those day to day things such as online shopping, paying bills and experiencing entertainment.  Here are a few tips on how to protect yourself from cyber criminals:

  • Invest in some Antivirus software – this is designed to prevent viruses from corrupting your computer or stealing data
  • Ignore any suspicious looking bank emails – no bank or card issuer will ever send you an email requesting your personal information. You should report the matter to your bank.
  • Never open unsolicited ‘spam’ emails – delete these straight away
  • Check your privacy settings – use private browsers and review your social media settings
