Ahoy mateys! 'Tis computer security day, and ye know what that means - time to make sure yer computer is safe from the scallywags of the internet. We here at Eltropy be all about security and compliance, so we thought we'd give ye three tips fer keepin' yer computer safe. First off, make sure yer passwords are strong. Ye don't want no hacker gettin' into yer system by guessin' a weak password. Make sure it's got numbers, letters, and symbols in it - somethin' like "B@nAnA_C4k3" would be perfect! Second, use two-factor authentication whenever possible. That way even if someone does get their hands on yer password they won't be able to access yer account without also havin' access to another device with a code or fingerprint scanner or whatever else the site requires. Thirdly, keep an eye out for suspicious activity on yer accounts. If ye see anythin' out of the ordinary - like strange emails or unfamiliar logins - change those passwords right away and contact customer service if need be. Now that ye have these three tips fer keepin' yer computer safe this Computer Security Day, go forth and protect yer data!
