Do you know where to connect safely?

Have you ever made these WiFi mistakes?

If so, let us help you correct it now!

Not all Wi-Fi is created equal — and public hotspots can be a hacker’s playground.

Restaurants & Coffee Shops – Free Wi-Fi sounds great, but it often has little to no protection. Hackers can easily acquire your data with a "Man-in-the-Middle" attack.

Hotels – Much like Coffee Shops, hotel Wifi is usually open access. Don't forget that people from all over visit hotels, so hackers are on the prowl. They can take control of the router and spy on personal or business info.

Public Transport – Wi-Fi on vehicles like trains and airplanes is handy, but risky. Malware attacks are common on these unsecured networks.

Airports – A Cybercriminal's Dream! Public networks here are so often targeted to steal passwords, financial data, and business info. People from all over travel, so why wouldn't they want that data?

💡 Pro Tip: Use a VPN or mobile hotspot when working on the go, as well as make sure that your anti-virus is up to date.

If you have traveled recently, you should get a complete security diagnostic, and we can help with that!

DON'T USE THE SAME OLD PASSWORDS!!!

Make sure each account has a unique and strong password by following some of these tips:


- Use 12 to 16 characters.
- Have a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.
- Don’t include any personal information. (if someone knows you, they can crack your passwords more easily.)
- Lastly, store all of your passwords in a password manager.

- Don’t include any personal information. (If someone knows you, they can crack your passwords more easily.)504-362-3922

Did You Know?

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) can prevent 99.2% of attacks on your accounts!

Weak passwords are a hacker's best friend, but MFA gives them a real headache!

Here are some tips to secure your accounts with MFA

🛠️ You need STRONG Passwords!

Passwords are one of the BIGGEST weak spots when it comes to cybersecurity. People often choose passwords that are easy to remember, which makes their accounts easy to crack for hackers using hacking software.

🌎Know your locations!

MFA can use contextual data to check the risk level of each authentication attempt with Geolocation.

This will take notice of access requests from unusual or high-risk locations and may prompt additional verification.

There are many more uses for MFA, and were can help you get them up and running!

How Secure Is Your Wi-Fi?
Let’s quickly learn the basics of Wi-Fi security! 👇

(Save this for later)

🔰 WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) Standards: There are mainly 3 important stages of
Wi-Fi security:

◼️ WEP (OLD – not recommended anymore)

◼️ WPA (Updated from WEP but now OUTDATED)

◼️ WPA2 (Most commonly used)

◼️ WPA3 (Newest and strongest)

🔐 WPA2 has two types:

➡️ WPA2-Personal
▪️ Used for home or small offices
▪️ Connects using only a password

➡️ WPA2-Enterprise
▪️ Used in offices or organizations
▪️ Requires User ID + Password login

🆕 WPA3 – More Advanced:
➡️ WPA3-Personal
▪️ New, more secure password system (SAE)
▪️ For regular users

➡️ WPA3-Enterprise
▪️ Used in companies or government organizations
▪️ Authentication system: EAP-TLS
▪️ Uses digital certificates for login!

✅ When setting up your Wi-Fi, always check if it supports WPA3!

You can call or schedule an appointment!
