They include:

  2. Keep your password safe since unauthorized access to it can enable someone to login to your account and this might lead to challenges. Never share your password with anyone. Staff at Tusomesasa Enterprises shall not ask for your password when offering services to you.
  3. Avoid public WIFI networks where possible since they might have been configured to store the passwords which may gove one access yo your account.
  4. Always log out of your account since access to your account by another person can increase the chances of identity stealing. How does identity stealing occur? Simple, a person access your account because you have not logged out. For some reason quickly changes your password and ooooops you have lost access yo your account.
  5. Change your password often to lower the chances of someone accessing it. This also will help reduce chances of someone guessing your password.
