Reverend Fathers,

Ladies and Gentlemen,
As we navigate through these challenging times, it is crucial to remain vigilant against potential cyberattacks, which often increase during periods of conflict. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
- Be cautious with emails and links: Avoid opening emails or clicking on links from unknown or suspicious sources. Cyber attackers often use phishing tactics to access sensitive information.
- Regularly update your software: Ensure that all your software, including antivirus programs (especially on your personal devices), is up-to-date. Regular updates help protect against known vulnerabilities.
- Use strong passwords: Create strong, unique passwords for all your accounts and change them regularly. Consider using a password manager to keep them secure.
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA): Activate 2FA on both your professional and personal accounts. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification in addition to your password.
- Never share your credentials: Never share your login credentials (personal or professional) with anyone. Keep your login information strictly confidential.
- Do not enter credentials or sensitive information on unsecured pages: Ensure that the websites where you enter sensitive information use the HTTPS protocol with a valid signature.
- Report suspicious activities: If you notice any unusual activity or receive suspicious communications, report it immediately to the IT department (STI).
Your vigilance and proactive actions are essential to protect our organization’s data and systems. Thank you for your cooperation and vigilance.
