Keep security advice current

Cliches about safe computing behavior aren't enough, because e-mail, surfing, and patching vulnerabilities change all the time.

Tell them that they should not run those funny videos and click on joke e-mail links sent to them by well-meaning friends. They should do that at home. They shouldn't be downloading music at work. Tell them how many music networks and peer-to-peer file sharing programs are big agents of infection. Remind them that they should not install software without prior approval. Tell them you (or your staff) will be glad to review their download choice to make sure it doesn't contain malware.
