Not all links are what they seem! Sometimes a link in an email might look like it’s taking you to a website, but it could actually lead to a file download. These executable files (.exe) can install malicious software on your device. When you get any email, check the following: - Verify the sender by looking for subtle misspellings or unusual email addresses. - Inspect links by right-clicking and selecting ‘Inspect’ to check if the link is actually a file download. - Be cautious with .exe files by only downloading files from trusted sources. Cybercriminals use these tricks to infect devices—don’t fall for it!

If you get a shiny new gadget this Christmas, or perhaps you’re planning to gift one to someone special, make sure you take the right steps to keep your devices and data secure. Cybercriminals don’t take holidays, so staying vigilant is essential. - Avoid using easy-to-guess passwords like '123456' or 'password.' Create a strong mix of letters, numbers, and symbols for better security. - Enable multi-factor authentication wherever possible for an extra layer of protection. - Keep your device’s software up to date to stay protected against the latest security vulnerabilities. - Back up important files to cloud storage services like OneDrive or Google Drive to keep your data safe and accessible, even if something happens to your device. Enjoy a worry-free Christmas by ensuring your devices and data are protected. #CyberSafety #OnlineSecurity #StaySafeOnline #ChristmasTips #DataProtection #Maximity

Watch Out for Phishing Emails This Christmas! Cybercriminals love to take advantage of the festive season by sending fake emails about parcel deliveries or order confirmations. Don’t let them ruin your holiday plans. Here’s how to stay safe: - Double-check the sender: Look out for small changes in email addresses that might indicate a fake. - Avoid clicking links: Go directly to the retailer’s website to track your parcels or confirm orders. - Don’t share sensitive information: Legitimate companies will never ask for passwords or payment details via email. Stay vigilant and make sure your inbox doesn’t become a cyber threat this Christmas. #CyberSafety #PhishingScams #ThinkBeforeYouClick #OnlineSafety #ChristmasSafety #Maximity
