Good Afternoon,

We wanted to let everyone know that we are building a knowledge base on our ticketing website where employees can go for non-complex issues they may be having. Here's the link: https://apminc.freshdesk.com/support/homeYou can also an archive of our weekly newsletters here as well. 

 

The topic for this week's IT newsletter is Password Security. 

Password Security is very important not only for your personal information but for the company. Having any of your passwords compromised can do extensive damage. Please follow these tips when creating a password for any account:

  

 Password Guidance for Users

  •  Don't use a password that is the same or similar to the one you use on any other websites
  • Don't use a single word, for example, password, or a commonly-used phrase like Iloveyou
  • Make passwords hard to guess, even by those who know a lot about you, such as the names and birthdays of your friends and family, your favorite bands, and phrases you like to use.

I have a small training for security at this link: https://www.cfisa.com/cfisa-infragardawareness-free-security-awareness-training-course/ You must use your work email.

InfraGard (https://www.infragard.org) is a partnership between the FBI and members of the private sector. The InfraGard program provides a vehicle for seamless public-private collaboration that expedites the timely exchange of information and promotes mutual learning opportunities relevant to the protection of Critical Infrastructure.
