What's inside

  • Headline story: Summer mode on. Security still on.
  • Three quick tips: Update before you go; Keep out-of-office replies boring; Hotel Wi-Fi: watch the pop-ups
  • Spot-the-scam pop-up puzzle (5 red flags) with the answer upside down
  • Fun fact: Myth buster: the FTC says connecting through public Wi-Fi is usually safe now, because most websites and apps encrypt your data. The bigger risk is a fake site or pop-up that asks for your information.

Participating districts download the same files co-branded with their own name and logo, and the QR codes count scans for their campaign reports.
