Our current political environment is fraught with danger, in both the real and digital world.
Indivisible National has published a guide with some suggestions for increasing your safety, as well as those around you. We’ve added the link to our website; each Thursday, we’ll highlight one of the suggestions.
Phishing/Malware Protection
Phishing and malware attacks can compromise your security by tricking you into sharing sensitive information. To counteract these risks, stay vigilant about email links, avoid sharing passwords through unsecured channels, and use trusted software to protect your devices.
