The weekend’s nearly here and everyone’s more relaxed and smiley – there might even be a few cakes in the tea room.
This is the perfect time for all those little jobs that don’t take a lot of time or effort, like shredding or doing a bit of desk tidying.
Another simple task that’s ideal for lazy Friday afternoons is a quick password change. It only takes a couple of minutes, but it can protect your business from a cyber attack.
Here’s a few of our top tips for strong passwords:
- Use a different password for every account. If this sounds like a time consuming and confusing nightmare, it doesn’t have to be. Apps like https://passwordsgenerator.net/ take away all the hassle of password changes.
- Change your passwords regularly and make it part of your routine. Once a quarter is perfect and more than enough for the average office.
- Use an enterprise level password manager such as Lastpass to help you pick robust, secure passwords that cyber criminals won’t be able to guess.
- Always ensure that when a staff member leaves your employment they won’t be able to access your system.
