IT Cybersecurity

PII is any information that can be used to identify you, either alone or with other information. 

• Know what PII is: Understand what information is considered PII and why it needs to be protected. 

• Limit what you share: Only provide PII when necessary and ensure the request is legitimate. 

• Be cautious online: Don’t share PII in email, text messages, or social media.  Verify before you click. 

• Secure your devices: Use strong passwords, lock your devices, and keep software up to date. 

• Handle with care: Store and dispose of PII securely, both in print and digital. 

• Use secure connections: Avoid using public Wi-Fi for sensitive activities. 

• Verify requests: Confirm the identity of anyone asking for your PII, even if they seem to be from FSCJ. 

• Think before you post: Oversharing can expose your PII.  Be mindful of what you post and who can see it.
