Step 5: Update your apps and devices. When your apps and devices are out of date they have higher risk of having weaknesses within them.
This makes it easier for hackers to get your information. (6/7)
Step 6: Back up your data. This creates a copy of your information and saves it to another device or to cloud storage (online).
For all advice and steps on staying safe this season visit @cyberawaregov here:

Step 4: Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA). This helps to stop hackers from getting into your account even if they have your password.

Step 3: With so many accounts to keep track of, remembering your password isn't always easy. The best way to safely ensure you remember your password is to save it in your browser.

Step 2: When creating a password @cyberawaregov recommend that you use 3 random words. You can use numbers and symbols as well - for example “RedPantsTree4!”
This makes the password safe, unique and memorable. (3/7)
Step 1: Use a strong password for any accounts you have, especially for your email. If a hacker gets into your email account they could access sensitive information.
Your email should have a different password to any other account. (2/7)
