The Importance of Creating a Strong Online Username

元素 is committed to keeping your financial information safe and secure, 因此, it is recommended that you add complexity to your online banking User ID. Your User ID is the key to your 元素 online identity, so it's just as important to create usernames that are as strong as a password. 为了确保您遵循良好的安全实践，请花点时间查看下面的提示.

创建强大用户名的技巧

• 使用大写和小写字母, 数字, 特殊字符在不明显的安排-最终他们不应该是复杂的, 但也不应该是一个简单的名字, 电话号码, 账号或社保号 
• 创建一个你容易记住，但别人很难猜到的用户名
• 个人在线账户使用不同的用户名，使得黑客更难获取信息
• Never use a Social Security Number as a username. Social Security Numbers may be hard to guess and easy to remember, 但它们可能会给恶意黑客提供一段梦寐以求的个人信息
• 永远不要向他人透露您的用户名，也不要将您的用户名存储在纸上或未加密的计算机文件中
• Never provide your online banking User ID if requested through email. 元素 will never ask you to supply your personal information.

选择一个安全的密码是保证你的在线帐户安全的关键. 如果你有一个相对简单的密码, other individuals may be able to access your account through a series of guesses. 为了防止这种情况发生, you should select a password that includes a combination of 数字, 信, 和文字. 避免使用简单的单词或任何其他人很容易获得的关于你自己的信息, 包括你的名字, 你配偶的名字, 你宠物的名字, 生日, 爱好, or any part of your User ID or email address.

• Use passwords that are unique for different sites. Hackers who steal passwords will try to use them on other sites.
• A strong password will be at least 10 characters long
• 如果您正在创建密码的站点允许，请在密码中使用空格. 空格使得密码更难被破解.
• Instead of a password, use a passphrase with a space, and keep it visual. 例如, 猪2树皮! would be a great passphrase that meets all of those suggestions.

In our fast-paced world, effective communication is a must; that’s why email has become so important. 然而, 传统的电子邮件可能并不总是发送或接收敏感信息的最安全的方式. 考虑到这一点，元素金融为您提供了几种与我们安全沟通的方式.

It's often hard to detect a fraudulent email. 这是因为发件人的电子邮件地址通常看起来是真实的，设计和图形也是如此. 但也有一些迹象值得注意. 例如, 欺诈性电子邮件通常试图通过以下两种方式之一获取你的个人信息:

• 基于html的电子邮件. HTML电子邮件(附图片), 查看目的URL, position your cursor over the link or button; the URL should appear in your email program's status bar at the bottom of the window. 然而, 欺骗性的url故意很长, so only the first part is usually visible in the status bar.

• 基于文本的邮件. 基于文本的电子邮件也往往包含很长的url，你点击它就可以进入一个网站. 然而, the URL may not represent the true destination.
