No matter how “bomb-proof” we make your network, you and your employees can still invite a hacker in if you click on a link or open an attachment in an e-mail sent by a cybercriminal. Some spam is obvious (can you say, “Viagra at a discount”?) but others are VERY cleverly designed to sneak past all the filters and trick the recipient into opening the door. Known as a “phishing” e-mail, this still is the #1 way hackers circumvent firewalls, filters and antivirus, so it’s critical that you and your employees know how to spot a threatening e-mail. Here are four types of e-mail ploys you should be on high alert for.

1. The Authority E-mail

The most common phishing e-mails are ones impersonating your bank, the IRS or some authority figure. The rule of thumb is this: ANY e-mail that comes in where 1) you don’t PERSONALLY know the sender, including e-mails from the IRS, Microsoft or your “bank,” and 2) asks you to “verify” your account should be deleted. Remember, ANY important notification will be sent via old-fashioned snail mail. If it’s important, they can call you.

2. The “Account Verification” E-mail

Any e-mail that asks you to verify your password, bank information or login credentials, OR to update your account information, should be ignored. No legitimate vendor sends e-mails asking for this; they will simply ask you upon logging in to update or verify your information if that’s necessary.

3. The Typo E-mail

Another big warning sign is typos. E-mails coming from overseas (which is where most of these attacks come from) are written by people who do not speak or write English well. Therefore, if there are obvious typos or grammar mistakes, delete it.

4. The Zip File, PDF Or Invoice Attachment

Unless you specifically KNOW the sender of an e-mail, never, ever open an attachment. That includes PDFs, zip files, music and video files and anything referencing an unpaid invoice or accounting file (many hackers use this to get people in accounting departments to open e-mails). Of course, ANY file can carry a virus, so better to delete it than be sorry.

Is someone accessing my Google Account?

You can see computers, phones, and other devices where you are or were signed in to your Google Account recently. You can check google.com/devices to make sure no one else has signed in to your account.

In some cases, you might see sessions instead of individual devices. A session is a period of time during which you’re signed in to our Google Account from a browser, app, or service on the device. It’s normal to have multiple sessions on the same device.

A separate session can be created on the device:

When you sign in on a new device

When you re-enter your password to verify it’s you

When you sign in on a new browser, app, or service

When you grant an app access to your account data

When you sign in on an incognito or private browser window

For your security, the page will display each session, to allow you to review its details and sign out of it if you’re not sure it’s yours.

What the time shown means

The times listed on the page represent the last time there was communication between the device or session and Google’s systems, at each location.

This communication can include:

User actions, like when you use Google Account or Google apps

Automatic syncing that happens in the background between a service and Google

Therefore, you might see a time which is more recent than when you last used the device.
