What's Included With Cybersecurity
Five Habits for Safe Browsing
- Type it, don’t click it. Go to banking and login pages directly, not through email links.
- Check the address. Lookalike domains swap one letter or add extra words.
- Ignore scary pop-ups. “Your computer is infected, call this number” is a scam.
- Use MFA and a password manager. Unique passwords everywhere.
- Report quickly. If something feels off, tell IT. There’s no penalty for asking.
On the Road
Avoid sensitive work on public Wi-Fi unless your device is protected. Never let others use your work laptop.
Backed by Technology
Web filtering, email security and training catch most threats before people have to. See habits for employees.
Scams That Look Real
Today’s scam sites can look identical to real banking, shipping and Microsoft sign-in pages. Fake search ads sometimes appear above real results, and fake tech support pop-ups use alarming sounds and warnings. The safest approach is to slow down, go directly to known sites through bookmarks and treat any unexpected request for a password, payment or remote access as suspicious until verified.
The Technical Side
- DNS and web filtering blocking known phishing, malware and newly registered domains
- Browser management with safe browsing settings and approved extensions only
- Password manager that only fills credentials on the correct site
- Phishing-resistant MFA options for high-risk accounts
- EDR to stop malicious downloads
- Report button and quick help desk response

Security on the Internet in Fort Lauderdale: Common Questions
How can employees spot scam websites?
Check the address carefully, be wary of urgent pop-ups and login pages reached from email links, and go to sites directly instead.
Is public Wi-Fi safe for work?
Avoid sensitive work on public Wi-Fi unless your device is protected and you use secure connections.
What should employees do if they clicked something bad?
Report it to IT right away. Fast reporting limits damage.
Why do fake sites appear in search results?
Criminals buy ads or create pages that imitate real brands. Using bookmarks for important sites avoids them.
Should we let employees install browser extensions?
Only approved ones. Some extensions collect browsing data or inject ads. We can manage which extensions are allowed.
What should I do if a pop-up says my computer is infected?
Do not call the number or allow remote access. Close the browser and call your IT team.
