Passwords & 2FA. Go beyond “password123”

With the recent Optus cyberattack still making headlines it’s time for Australians to do better when it comes to protecting themselves online.

Research has found that many Australians have their password as simple as ‘password123’. Not the most complex password in the world! Likewise, sticking a post-it note on your computer screen may fend off cyber criminals but it still leaves you open to individuals who have physical access to your environment.
