New Year's Cybersecurity Resolutions

Make your cyber life a little more safe and secure with these New Year's Cybersecurity Resolutions:

• Delete your unused accounts

Got an old account you never use anymore -- like Yahoo, MySpace,

or AOL? Delete it to eliminate the possibility of it being hacked.

• Change and strengthen your passwords

Many online services don't require you to change your password,

but this is no reason not to change them yourself.

• Check your backups

You have backup copies of your important data, right? Are your

backups current and complete, or have they fallen behind?

• Uninstall unused apps

You'll have one less app for a hacker to hack, one less password

to remember, and more space on your device.

• Check for updates

Outdated apps (like Adobe Reader, Microsoft Office) and operating

systems (like Windows) provide hackers with easy targets, and account

for 85% of targeted attacks!
