Cybersecurity for the office
Short cartoons and familiar screens: Wi-Fi, passwords, bait emails and AI without leaks
- Wi-Fi. A shared room — Whoever is on your network is in your room. Guests get the guest network; on someone else’s network, VPN comes first.
- Password manager. One password, one door — The vault remembers all the different passwords; you remember one. Move the passwords from sticky notes into a password manager, replace the reused one and share access through a shared vault.
- 2FA. The second lock — A stolen password is not enough when the second key is in your pocket. Turn on 2FA with a QR code, save the backup codes and reject a stranger’s sign-in request.
- Phishing. The bait email — The name in an email is a costume; the address tells the truth. Find the baits in the inbox without pressing anything in them.
- Social engineering. A call “from IT” — Fraudsters fool people, not computers: pause and check through another channel. A “director” writes from a new number and asks you to pay an invoice urgently.
- Access token. A pass of its own for the AI — An AI chat is not a vault: the assistant gets a pass of its own. A read-only token instead of a password in the chat, revoked when the work is done.
- Incident. If you have already clicked — The danger is not the slip but the silence. The first 15 minutes: tell IT, change the password, sign out everywhere and keep the email for IT.
