Best Practices for Staying Safe Online
Strengthen Your Defences: Online Security Best Practices
As scams grow more sophisticated, adopting proactive online security habits is essential. These best practices can help protect you from a range of cyber threats.
1. Use Strong Passwords Create unique passwords for every account. A combination of letters, numbers, and symbols is best.
2. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) 2FA adds an extra layer of security, requiring a secondary form of verification. Add 2FA to your Caleb & Brown Portal account, plus all other accounts you hold.
3. Keep Software Updated Ensure your devices and apps have the latest updates to patch security vulnerabilities.
4. Be Skeptical of Unsolicited Communications Verify unexpected requests for information by contacting the sender through official channels.
5. Use Caleb & Brown’s CallerCheck Feature For additional security, use our CallerCheck tool in the client Portal to verify the identity of anyone contacting you from Caleb & Brown.
By adopting these habits, you can enjoy peace of mind while navigating the digital world.
