There are several things you can do to protect your identification and password.
Make your passwords long, strong and complex. That means at least twelve characters, with uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid common words, phrases or information.
Do not open emails or click links from unknown senders.
Double check that no one is watching when you enter your username and password.
Try to memorize your username and password rather than writing them down.
If you do write down your username and password, store that document in a secure place.
Do not share your username and/or password with others.
Report any unusual account activity immediately.
Do not give your information to anyone requesting it over the phone unless you have initiated the call.
Always log out of the system when you are done.
