Small Steps, Big Impact: Security in Practice

  • Pause before clicking, phishing emails often look legitimate; verify the sender before opening links or attachments. 
  • Lock your screen every time you step away, even for a moment. Keep all devices updated, install updates and restart regularly to stay protected. 
  • Access patient data only when necessary and only for treatment, payment, or operational needs. 
  • Use only approved apps and AI tools to avoid unintentionally exposing patient information. Avoid clinical conversations in public areas such as elevators, hallways, or cafeterias. 
  • Report suspicious activity immediately, unusual pop‑ups, device behavior, or emails should go straight to IT/security. 
  • Verify identities if someone calls or messages asking for access, credentials, or sensitive information. 
  • Secure printed documents by promptly disposing of or storing them according to policy.
  • Beware of USB drives, only use organization‑approved storage devices. 
  • Trust your instincts, if something feels “off,” it’s better to report it.
