Cybersecurity Tip of the Week – Downloading Unapproved Software

Be cautious about downloading third-party antivirus applications and software. Many times, when you download a new application, the manufacturer “bundles” other downloads with it.

Be cautious of downloading ANY software or applications that can harm your device and our network.
