Protecting Yourself from Phishing

Build these defense habits to become phishing-resistant:

• Check the sender's actual email address — hover to see the real address, watching for domains like g00gle.com versus google.com
• Never click links in unexpected emails — type the website's address yourself instead
• Verify through a different channel — if your boss emails an urgent request, call to confirm

Watch for pressure tactics, because legitimate organizations rarely demand immediate action under threat. When something looks suspicious, report it with your email client's built-in phishing button so the filters improve for everyone.
