Cybersecurity Tip of the Month: Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
To kick off the month, here’s a vital security tip: enable multi-factor authentication (MFA). With MFA, you add an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of identification alongside your password. Whether you get a code via text, an app, or email, this small step can dramatically reduce the chances of unauthorised access to your accounts.
