Your password should not be "password." Also, "qwerty123" and "123456" will get you in trouble. Are you using the same password across multiple accounts? It's time to update those.

October is Cyber Security Awareness Month. In this week's Market Perspective, Jason and Suzy discuss common cyber financial crimes and straightforward steps you can use to fortify your online accounts.

Suzy Klapperich is the Chief Compliance Officer at Vector. She works with the team and our custodians to apply cyber-security best practices. Beyond password hygiene, Suzy says to look out for phishing emails requesting your personal information, beware of urgent wire transfer requests, and avoid using public wi-fi.
