Security Tips From The Government

Posted Apr 11, 2007 by Jason Faulkner  

I stumbled across a really informative government site the other day while researching a security problem I am having. The site is called, simply, Cyber Security Tips and is just that.

The site is very well organized as the 8 categories are broken into logical peices with relevant links to additional information under each. The content seems to be written in a way that it should not be a daunting read for anyone. The topic covered are:

  • General overview
  • Threats
  • Email and Browsing security
  • Privacy
  • Mobile devices
  • Software

This is a great resource for anyone looking to get a general education about online threats.

Note: I’ve posted an important addendum to the recent tip, Encrypting a Windows File, regarding an issue you should know about before using this feature. Please be sure you read it.
