Security Checklist (continued)

• Email security:

  • Have you configured your email program to not render html or other scripting languages?
  • Do you keep your inbox “preview pane” closed to prevent certain types of malicious code from executing?
  • Do you turn off “Automatically download HTML graphics” and “Display graphics in messages” options?
  • Do you use mail filtering software to screen email and identify suspect messages, and do you regularly delete unwanted and suspicious messages?
