Question

Which set of strategies best represents good cybersecurity practices at home and school?



Using strong passwords, keeping software updated, enabling MFA


Using the same password everywhere, disabling automatic updates, ignoring suspicious emails


Writing passwords on sticky notes, turning off antivirus to “speed up” the computer, installing random apps


Only using the computer in public places, sharing Wi-Fi with strangers, opening all attachments

Answer 1

"Using strong passwords, keeping software updated, enabling MFA."

These practices reduce the risk of account takeover and malware: strong/unique passwords (use a password manager), keep OS and apps updated to patch vulnerabilities, and enable multi-factor authentication for an extra layer of security. The other options suggest insecure behaviors (password reuse, disabling updates, opening suspicious attachments, etc.).
