How to Stay Safe Online - Cybersecurity Tips to Protect Yourself

Making sure you stay safe online has never been more important than right now, especially as summer travel picks up and you become more vulnerable by using public wi-fi, spending money abroad, or sharing your personal info more frequently online for hotel and airline bookings.

That's why I wanted to do a follow-up video to my previous video on scam and fraud prevention, and asked cybersecurity expert Leigh Tynan, who is also the Director of TELUS Online Security, to share some important stats and actionable tips we should all know so we can better stay safe online.
