How Do I?

Why are there so many USB-C cables?

USB-C is really about the shape of the connector but they don’t all do the same thing. Some cables can only be used for charging but some can also be used for data.

What’s a strong password?

Passwords are stronger when they’re longer than 16 characters, random, and unique. You should never reuse passwords.

How do I avoid a scam?

Scams are rampant and come to use via emails and other kinds of messages. Learning how to detect them is key to avoiding them.

Secretary, Louisiana Department of Revenue

Working with OTS on launching the LDR website was a partnership that continues to pay dividends. OTS worked closely with us during development and after the site went live to ensure that it meets the needs of all stakeholders, including LDR staff, policymakers, tax professionals and individual and business taxpayers. The support they continue to provide is invaluable.
