Some browsers will additionally show a secure website by displaying a lock icon before the URL. When you are unsure, examine if there are any complaints or allegations of scams by searching for the firm and the website online.
- When registering for an account, choose a strong password that combines uppercase and lowercase letters, at least one digit and a special character such as, “! # $” etc.
- Be aware of phishing and malicious emails that require your personal information. Do not open them without contacting an IT officer or doing related security checks.
- You need to protect against malware with regular updates to your antivirus program.
- If you are shopping via a public hotspot, stick to known networks, even if they’re free, it’s always best to privatise your Wi-Fi.
