Sneaky Fake Error Pop-Ups Are Spreading Malware Everywhere

It’s the kind of online trick that makes your heart skip a beat. A window pops up on your screen telling you there’s something wrong with your computer or that the website you’re trying to view is corrupted.

New Year, New Financial You! Start 2026 Strong!

The start of a new year is the perfect time to give your finances a checkup. Just like we prioritize our physical health, investing time in your financial well-being can set the stage for a successful year ahead.

But one resolution that deserves a permanent spot on everyone’s list is tightening up your personal cybersecurity. Cyberthreats don’t take holidays, and scammers aren’t slowing down. In fact, they’re getting bolder, trickier, and faster at finding new ways to get into your accounts and steal your money or data.
