NEVER SAVE YOUR LOGON INFORMATION - When logging in, make sure the box is NOT checked that asks if you want to save your login info for next time. And when you log out, do not simply hit the X in the top-right corner of the browser, but rather use the LOG OFF feature of the site you are in.

DO NOT WALK AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER IF YOU HAVE SENSITIVE INFORMATION VISIBLE - It is completely understandable that if you're in a restaurant to work for an hour, you're probably hungry. And when they call your number, all you want to do is go grab your food. But it's just not a good idea.

WATCH FOR OVER-THE-SHOULDER SNOOPS - Believe it or not, other people may be in the same facility for malicious intent. Be aware of your surroundings.

DO NOT ENTER SENSITIVE INFORMATION INTO UNFAMILIAR COMPUTERS - It's one thing to browse the internet or check email from a public terminal or connection. It's a completely different story to log onto your bank, make purchases or access stock accounts. Can it be done safely? Sure! But if you limit your exposure, you limit your risk.

ERASE YOUR TRACKS - Most newer browsers have "privacy" settings or features that allow you to erase your history, cookies and other information. Learn about the systems you are using and take these easy steps to protect yourself.
