6. Turn on 2-factor authentication (sometimes called Multi-factor or 2 step verification). App-based MFA (such as google authenticator) is better than text message, but anything is waaay better than nothing

WH Smith hacked today - not ransomware this time, my guess is that they've got into their HR system. Lots of personal information accessed of employees (current and former). #hacking #whsmith #ransomware #cyber #cyberattacks
