- KEEP YOUR SOFTWARE UPDATED.
Having updated software helps remove vulnerabilities that hackers use to access your device.
- PROTECT YOURSELF WITH ANTI-VIRUS & FIREWALL.
Install antivirus software from a trusted vendor. This will help your device fight malicious attacks and block malware from entering your device and compromising your data.
- USE STRONG PASSWORDS.
Passwords are important in keeping hackers out of your data. Make sure you select a strong password that may only be guessed by yourself. Don’t use the same password twice and never give it out.
- TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) was introduced to EmpowerFX to provide an extra layer of security to your accounts. Make you enable your 2FA!
- PHISHING
Whilst phishing, the attacker poses as an entity or company to trick the recipient into divulging credentials, clicking a malicious link or opening attachments that infect the user’s system with malware.
If you receive suspicious communication, delete it immediately. EmpowerFX will always contact you through official addresses.
