October is Cyber Security Action Month.
Throughout the month, we'll share simple ways to stay safer online, whether at home, at work, or running a business. Small actions can make a big difference when it comes to protecting what matters most.
What is Cyber Security Action Month?
Turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Use a long and unique passphrase on every account
Update your devices and back up what matters most
Cyber Security Action Month is an annual reminder to think about how we stay safe online and build cyber safe behaviours into our everyday routines.
This year's theme, "Take a second. Stay secure.", encourages us to slow down, think before we click and make safer choices. Cyber threats often rely on speed and distraction, so taking a moment to pause can help you stay one step ahead and better protect yourself.
A quick pause can make a big difference, but it's just one part of staying safer online. Here are four other simple actions that can help protect what matters most:
We encourage you to use multi-factor authentication (MFA) on all your accounts, where available. Adding an extra layer of security can make it harder for cyber criminals to access your accounts, even if they know your password.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds an extra layer of security to your accounts and devices. Learn how it works, why it matters, and how it can help you protect your accounts.
Using a passphrase instead of a simple password makes your account harder to crack. Passphrases combine length and complexity, which can make them more secure than traditional passwords.
Learn how to create secure passwords and passphrases that help you protect your accounts from cybercriminals. Explore tips for stronger online security.
Updates and backups work hand in hand to help keep you protected online. Keeping your devices up to date helps protect against cyber threats, while regular backups help ensure your important information is there when you need it most.
Software updates can strengthen your devices and prevent criminals from getting your data. Read on to learn more about automatic software updates.
Discover practical tips to reduce cyber risks and help protect yourself from common threats like scams, phishing, and malware when using smart devices.
Understanding common scams and cyber threats can help you recognise when something isn't quite right, take action to protect yourself, and report it to help keep others safe.
Before you act:
Learn how to spot fake messages and calls claiming to be from ANZ. Discover key signs of a scam, what ANZ will never ask for, and how to protect your money and information.
Getting scammed online can happen to anyone. But with the right tools and know-how, you can help protect yourself (and loved ones) against scams.
