A recent Equifax Canada survey reveals that while 83% of Canadians feel confident they can identify scams, many still lack strong cybersecurity practices. Nearly two-thirds encountered fraudulent messages in the past year, yet only 58% use multi-factor authentication and 50% use unique passwords. Alarmingly, 22% reuse a few passwords across accounts, increasing risk if breached. The survey also found younger Canadians are more likely to ignore data breach alerts, highlighting a gap between awareness and action. Experts urge stronger password use, multi-factor authentication, and prompt responses to breach notifications to better protect personal data.
