IT Security Tip #28:
Change Your Name, And I Don’t Mean The Last One

Too often we see e-mail usernames and prefixes the same across multiple free e-mail services.

For example:

  • jimmy67chevy@aol.com
  • jimmy67chevy@gmail.com
  • jimmy67chevy@yahoo.com
  • jimmy67chevy@icloud.com

This makes the work of hackers and cybercriminals way too easy. With the first part easy to figure out, they can get access to other online services and data or even spoof your e-mail addresses to others. Variety is the spice of life. Introduce it to your e-mail addresses.

This Tuesday Tidbits series is one great way to keep your employees informed, but you STILL need a good AUP in place and training. If you’d like our help in creating one for your company, based on best practices, call us at (608) 755-1524. You’ll be glad you did.
