June is Internet Safety Month which is probably one of the best times for people to be reminded about all about the most up-to-date best practices that will simplify online business methods securely and help us all to stay safe online.

The wonder of the www, whilst brilliant in so many ways, can be quite a high-risk place, where the technology in your hands can literally lose many days of work or worse, huge amounts of money. Despite the warnings, patches, upgrades or investment in new systems, generally resolving a problem online tends to come about after the horse has bolted.

There are many consequences that relate to unsafe practices online, but even the most tech-shy can take preventative steps to keep their business and social platforms in better shape.

Phishing emails and the people behind them are getting much more clever, with bogus websites and forms that really can and do replicate the most trusted areas on the World Wide Web.
