At LP Networks, we know how overwhelming it can feel to keep up with the latest threats and jargon, but the good news is that building a cyber-aware culture doesn’t require expensive tools or specialist knowledge, it starts with simple, everyday habits.
Here are six easy cybersecurity habits your team can start today to keep your business safer online.
It might sound obvious, but this is one of the most common ways cybercriminals gain access to company systems. Suspicious links in emails, messages, or pop-ups can lead to phishing scams or malware.
Encourage your team to:
Weak or reused passwords are a goldmine for cybercriminals. A single breach can lead to access across multiple accounts.
Help your team build better password habits:
MFA adds an extra layer of protection, even if a password is compromised. It usually involves a code sent to your phone or generated by an app.
Make it a standard wherever possible, especially for email, cloud storage, and finance systems.
Software updates aren’t just about new features – they often contain important security patches that protect against new threats.
Encourage your team to:
Stepping away from your desk, even for just a cuppa, can leave your device vulnerable. A quick lock can prevent accidental data leaks or prying eyes.
A simple habit:
We’re all human, and mistakes happen. The key is creating a culture where your team feels comfortable speaking up quickly if they’ve clicked something dodgy or sent an email to the wrong person.
Why it matters:
These simple habits don’t require a degree in IT or hours of training, just a bit of awareness and consistency. By encouraging your team to take small steps each day, you’re laying the groundwork for a more secure workplace.
And if you need help putting the right processes or training in place, LP Networks is here to support you. Whether you’re looking for a one-off security audit, staff awareness training, or fully managed cybersecurity services, we’ve got your back.
