It’s our last advisory for this month.
Congratulations on making it to the end of our month of cyber security tips. You are now much harder to hack than at the start of October!
We’d like to finish off the month with a review. Now is the time to look back at the bytetins that you’d said you’d work on another day and get them done.

With the habits we suggested, why not set yourself regular calendar reminders, so that they become a part of your weekly schedule.
If you only take one thing away from this month, though, it is: install a password manager. We and our team think these nifty tools are simply life-changing – both from a productivity and security perspective!
