Mixing personal and company information can lead to a cybersecurity attack. If you combine company data such as customer records or financial information with personal details like social security numbers, credit card data, or medical records - and fail to secure this information adequately - it could result in a data breach. This, in turn, could lead to financial losses, identity theft, harm to one's reputation, and legal troubles. It's crucial to keep personal and business information separate and to implement proper security measures.

All it takes is a moment of carelessness for a family member, co-worker, or malicious individual to accidentally or intentionally cause damage or access critical information they are not authorized to see.

Two-factor authentication utilizes both forms: (1) something you know, like a username or password, and (2) something you have, like an authenticator app on your phone. Apps like these serve as an extra layer of security to confirm if the account owner is the one trying to access it. Once it is set up, be certain not to delete the app that you used; otherwise, you risk being locked out of your account.

Your mobile device may be using default permissions that you were unaware of having granted or having suspicious apps operating in the background. They have the ability to collect your personal data without your awareness. In order to remove rights that you don't need or aren't using, follow the “rule of least privilege.” According to the principle of least privilege, apps and other system components should only have the access rights required for them to operate properly. For instance, a device's microphone or contacts list shouldn't be made available to an app that simply requires access to the camera.
