Ministry of Defence’s cyber good practice guide to protecting yourself in cyberspace 1. We are all personally responsible for protecting Defence assets, and information is one of our key assets. Report any concerns immediately. 2. If you think an email is suspicious, forward it as an attachment to SPOC-Spam and delete from your inbox using Shift-Del. If you think you have opened something by mistake, then report it at once. Never reply to spam email. 3. If unsure, don’t click on any links or open attachments. Use Favourites for websites you visit often. 4. Be alert to potential targeting by social engineers and report any concerns immediately. 5. Think before you share online – including posting on social media sites – are you giving away information which could impact on personal or operational security, or could be used by a social engineer? 6. Never give sensitive information unless you are sure the recipient is who they say they are and has a valid need to know. 7. Protect passwords – never share them or leave them where they can be found. Don't make them easily guessable, or use the same password for different applications. 8. Don't plug anything into the USB ports of military IT systems including DII, not even to charge them, except for officially – procured MOD USB devices. If you find any unaccounted for USB devices in your workplace you should hand them to your Security Officer. 9. Keep your anti-virus up to date at home so that it can help reduce the risk of downloading malware. Remember that however well protected you are, nothing can guard against every threat – so be vigilant.
