Never Reuse Email Passwords Across Accounts

Password reuse is how one breach becomes many. If a personal website gets hacked and someone reused that password for business email, the attacker can walk right in.

Email access often leads to access to files, contacts, and financial conversations.

Tips:
-Use a password manager so every account can have a unique password without being hard to manage.
-Reset any business password that has ever been reused on a personal account.

OR

If you want password management to be simple and consistent, On Point IT can help standardize it for Microsoft 365 users.

Recognize the Warning Signs of Phishing Emails

Phishing emails are built to look normal, especially when you are busy.

The message may look like a shared file, an invoice, or a simple request from someone you know. One click can steal credentials or trigger malware.

Tips:-Treat urgency plus money, passwords, or attachments as a red flag every time.
-Verify the request using a second method like a phone call or a new email you start yourself.

OR

If you want fewer dangerous emails reaching your team, On Point IT can strengthen Microsoft 365 filtering and user protections.

Turn On Multi-Factor Authentication for Every Mailbox

Email is the front door to most businesses now, and stolen passwords are still one of the easiest ways in.

One compromised inbox can lead to vendor fraud, fake invoices, and exposed files. MFA makes that stolen password far less useful.

Tips:
-Require MFA for every user, not just admins, and pay special attention to owners and finance.
-Use an authenticator app instead of SMS when possible for stronger protection.

OR

If you want this enforced consistently across the whole company, On Point IT can set up and monitor MFA in Microsoft 365.

Use a Business Email Domain, Not Free Email

When work email runs on Gmail or Yahoo, the account is usually treated like a personal identity instead of a business system.

That makes it harder to control access, keep clean records, and protect the company when roles change.

A domain email like [email protected] is a simple upgrade that improves trust and ownership.

Tips:
-Start by moving leadership, billing, and support to Microsoft 365 domain accounts first.
-Create shared addresses like [email protected] and [email protected] so communication stays with the company.

OR

If you want a clean migration without breaking day to day email, On Point IT can move you into Microsoft 365 and keep everything organized.
