Do not share Personal Information
Be cautious while filling up online forms, responding to calls (pretending to be legitimate) that ask your
name, DOB, bank details etc. Banks never ask your User Id, Pin or Password over the phone or via email.
Secure Online Transactions
During certain transactions some information such as credit card
details or personal information is sent over the network. Therefore, it
is always recommended to use only secure websites for doing such
transactions. Always verify whether the website you are using, keeps
transactions secure or not.
A digital certificate represented by a golden lock in the web browser’s
address bar signifies that the website is secure. Web addresses that
start with ‘https’ also signify that the website is secure.
Avoid using Unsecured Wi-Fi
Never connect your device to any unsecured or unknown Wi-Fi network. Connecting to an unsecure
network might lead to leakage of your valuable data.
