Install the latest software and app updates

Cybercriminals use weaknesses in software and apps to attack your devices and steal your identity. You should make sure that you update your computer, smartphone or tablet when prompted to do so. Software and app updates are designed to fix weaknesses and installing them as soon as possible will keep your devices secure.

The few minutes it takes to download and install updates could save you a significant amount of time and trouble in the long run, reducing the risk of you falling victim to identity theft.
