It’s the first Thursday in May and while many are celebrating Cinco De Mayo, at BMT we are rejoicing National Password Day!!  We commemorate this special day with some tips to help you stay safe online!

3 Tips You Can Use Now to Improve Online Security

  1. Passwordless Sign-In.  Yes, this does exist!  This new feature allows you to access your Microsoft Apps and Services without a password!  Learn more about Microsoft’s passwordless sign-in.
  2. Two-Factor Authentication.  One of the most important steps you can take to protect accounts is adding multifactor authentication, which blocks 99.9 percent of account compromise attacks.  Learn how to easily set-up Two-Factor Authentication – read our simple how-article or watch the video.
  3. Use a Password Manager. We understand remembering multiple complex passwords is not an easy task.  That’s why we highly recommend a Password Manager.  A password manager will store all your personal and work-related passwords, generate strong ones for you, and in general, the only password you have to remember is the one to open your password manager.    Learn more about the benefits of using a Password Manager and how to set up a free account.
