October, which has been designated as Cybersecurity Month – as well as other such holidays, such as Safer Internet Day – is the perfect time to remind yourself how important it is to take care of using the network safely. In doing so, you should follow a few important rules, which we have listed below.

A key part of protecting an individual's account is using strong passwords.
Avoid simple and easy-to-guess telegram expose sverige combinations, and instead use unique and hard-to-crack ones. Is "123456" or "johndoe" a secure password? Not necessarily! Remember to use letters, numbers, and special characters at the same time.
It can also be helpful to use a password manager to help manage your passwords and keep them safe. This is important if you use different logins on different sites – this also increases your online security.
