In light of this I think it only prudent to put out a call to all Americans to stay vigilant. During these days and weeks as we approach the 10th anniversary we all need to have a heightened sense of awareness as it regards our own personal cyber-security. Be extra cautious about opening emails that look suspicious. Be wary of links in emails. Beware of attachments. And be extra observant when using banking & financial institutions web sites to be sure they have not been 'hacked' or hijacked.
I'm not saying to ignore messages or delete attachments. But rather to take an extra few seconds to be certain that email is really coming from the person you think it is. Make certain your anti-virus software is properly installed and working. Make sure you are using a good quality hardware and software firewall. Make sure your operating system and application software is updated with all the current patches. Take all the steps necessary to protect yourself from those who would seek to harm you and this great nation we call home. The data you save may be your own!
God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.
