Just a heads up. If you use LinkedIn you were probably hacked. My IT department sent this link and told us to check to see if we were hacked. https://haveibeenpwned.com/ It's safe. You can enter your email and see if they they got it. If they did changed your passwords immediately for you email and any account it's associated with.
I surfed this morning. And now I'm at work. Well, working from home. Also go in when I want to, which is almost never.
Few years back a guy giving a keynote speech at a tech conf proved the Adobe could be hacked right after they declared it wasn't possible. So naturally the feds arrested him.
You are then, lucky. I had the same arrangement for 35 years; was very allowing to get both work done and personal stuff. Glad to hear it.
Yup... This is what my IT sent out. If the above site lists you as affected there are some steps you should take: 1. Change your LinkedIn password ASAP 2. If you use the same, or similar, password at this company then please change it immediately 3. If you used the password in other places (Facebook, Gmail, e-banking, etc) you should change that too. 4) Above all, make sure your email account uses a different password to everything else. If one single account gets hacked then someone can use your email account to access any other account linked to it. 4. Enable two-factor authentication on LinkedIn and any other sites which offer this functionality.
What do you all do where you get to work from home? My company never lets us work from home even though you can live in the middle of the Congo and do so in this day and age.
I use 2 factor where ever I can. Most of the time it sends a text to my phone (as opposed to an email) so unless you're me (or my phone is hacked) you're not getting in. That being said no system is flawless so you should all be changing your passes every 90 days at minimum. This is my awesome tech advice. Savor it. I don't dispense it often due to a medical condition I have called "Stupid".
Good cal on Keepass. I was using Firefox password manager to deal with this, along with encryped zip exports, but this is tool is suite, er I mean sweet.
