Do you immediately update your software and apps when prompted? Here's a reminder from us to do that update you've been hitting 'later' on. 😉 More cyber tips here: https://lnkd.in/dp2BtUFf [Video Description: In a scenic park, a woman drops her phone and a nearby passerby picks it up saying, “Hey! You dropped your phone.” The woman says, “thank you." The passerby hands it back, “phone ok?” “Yeah, I think my case protected it,” the woman replies. “Great and are the insides of your device safe too?” replies the passerby. “You mean like phone settings? Yeah, they have great security,” replies the woman slightly confused. “And is all of your software up to date? I mean if you were to go into your phone system’s setting right now would we see any alerts…red dots?” the passerby replies quizzingly. “Well maybe—does updating it really help?” the woman replies. “Yes, regular updates to your phone’s software, settings and antivirus help keep all your devices safe from new threats,” the passerby replies. “Ok, you sold me,” the woman replies and turns to leave, “I’ll update them tonight and then I’m good.” “Now about your apps,” the passerby points out. “Seriously?” the woman replies. “That’s right, before you download any new apps, look for good ratings, positive comments, and a history of regular and recent updates,” says the passerby. “Wow…that’s a lot,” the woman chuckles. “And at home…your router? That’s the device that creates your whole Wi-Fi network,” the passerby continues. “It’s that important…ok, I’ll have to look at that later tonight then,” the woman replies. “Only if you don’t want someone buying a house in your name,” the passerby jokes. “No, thanks for the advice,” the woman laughs as she leaves. “Have a security updating party! That’s what I do…what! It’s fun…Ruby from Accenture, reminding you to stay informed and trust your instincts,” says the passerby to the audience. A white screen with security prompts for the audience appears: update your settings and antivirus software, keep your phone, computer, and Wi-Fi router up-to-date, before downloading new apps, look for high ratings, positive comments and history of regular and recent updates.]
