Reports of online scams and cyberattacks are on the rise, but most people don’t heed them until it’s too late. So, what steps can you take right away to avoid becoming another cautionary tale?

Artificial intelligence (AI) has taken the world by storm, becoming integrated into numerous aspects of daily life, from smart assistants on your phone to smart speakers in your home, and web-based sources, like ChatGPT or Gemini.
