✔️ Replace unsupported devices: When updates stop, your device is no longer secure. Replace it or keep it offline for non-sensitive use only.

✔️ Make updates part of your routine: Check for updates weekly or at least monthly. Don’t hit “Remind Me Later”—updates usually take just minutes and keep your devices secure.

Update Your Software and Apps Safely to Stay Safe Online

✔️ Enable automatic updates—but don’t rely on them completely. Verify settings quarterly and restart your devices weekly to make sure updates install properly.

AI makes phishing more convincing.

But humans who slow down, question urgency, and report suspicious activity are still the strongest line of defense. #CyberResilience #SecurityCulture

Training + awareness is still the key for success

Remind your workforce to:
1. Double-check sender addresses
2. Avoid unknown links
3. Report suspicious messages immediately to IT

The result? Even vigilant employees can get tricked.

AI-aided phishing doesn’t just imitate trusted sources — it adds urgency: “Update your password now!” or “Act fast!”

That urgency makes us drop our guard.

Security isn’t about making things harder for employees—it’s about making things impossible for attackers.

✅ The future is in stronger authentication:

Multi-factor authentication (preferably phishing-resistant)

Password managers to generate and store unique logins

Short-lived tokens and modern identity protections

If your organization is still clinging to old habits—short, simple logins or recycled credentials—it’s not a matter of if but when those defenses fail.
