Passwords
It’s not certain that company leaders and managers interfere with employees’ passwords – it’s, of course, confidential. But it might still be a good idea to remind employees of some precautions when it comes to password usage. For example, not using the same password in multiple places.

Phishing messages often contain links or attached files that the sender tries to get you to open. If you click on a fake link and enter your username and password, they become visible to the cybercriminals. Information that can be used to access a system such as HR, CRM, or financial systems.
