🔒 Before sharing information with AI, ask yourself: Does it really need to know?
A little less information can mean a lot more privacy.
Need it? Share it. Don't need it? Leave it out.

AI can be a great starting point, but what it generates still needs your judgment.
Before you use or share important information: Pause. Check. Verify.
#CyberSmarts #CyberSafeAI
AI gave you a source. Does that mean you can trust it?
Not necessarily. AI can invent sources, statistics, report titles, and other convincing details.
Check the source before you use it.

AI can sound polished and convincing even when the information is wrong.
A confident answer isn’t proof of an accurate one.
Think before you trust.
#CyberSmarts #CyberSafeAI
It’s Cybersecurity Awareness Month! 🔐
We’re kicking off our 2026 #CyberSmarts series with CyberSafe AI and a simple reminder for anyone using generative AI: a confident answer isn’t always a correct one.
Think before you trust.
AI can sound convincing and still get it wrong. So how do you know what to trust?
