With retailers increasing their efforts and starting earlier to entice holiday shoppers, many choose to do some, most or all of their purchasing on the internet, even starting Black Friday sales on Monday or extending Cyber Monday sales by a few days.

Cyber criminals do not discriminate. Guard yourself against becoming a victim. Whether shopping during the holidays or year round, be vigilant in guarding your private information through safe and sound cyber security practices.

The Department of Homeland Security has some helpful tips to keep you cyber-safe, not just during the holiday season, but year-round.
