RSS SANS Institute Security Awareness Tip of the Day

  • Search Yourself Online
    Ever wonder just how much information is publicly available about you? Ever wonder how cyber criminals harvest information and customize attacks for their victims. The technique is called Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) and it is far simpler and more powerful than you think.
  • Personalized Scams

  • Social Media Privacy Settings

  • Bluetooth
    Turn off Bluetooth if you are not using it on your computer or device. Not only does this make it more secure, but it also saves battery life.

    Privacy is more than just settings in your Social Media account or using the Tor Browser. Your data and actions are collected in a variety of ways. The more aware you are of just how much of your data is collected, the better you can protect it.
