Digital & Online Safety: A Safety Reminder

A few good habits worth keeping close by when it comes to digital & online safety.

Why this matters

Today's brief is a general reminder rather than a single news story — good habits around digital & online safety protect you every day, not just when something goes wrong.

How to do it

Keep your phone's software updated. Those update notifications help protect you — ask a family member to help if you're not sure how.

Quick recap

• Keep your phone's software updated. Those update notifications help protect you — ask a family member to help if you're not sure how.
• Before entering card details on a website, check for the small lock symbol next to the address — it's a sign the page is secure.
• Delete emails or messages that ask you to "click here" or "confirm your details." Real companies don't request personal information this way.
