Security Tips

Small, repeatable habits protect you far more than any single piece of software.

Use strong unique passwords

A long passphrase per account stops one leak from unlocking your whole digital life.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication

2FA blocks the vast majority of account takeovers even when your password is stolen.

Keep software updated

Updates close the exact security holes attackers scan for automatically.

Avoid suspicious links

Hover to preview the destination and type known addresses manually when in doubt.

Backup important files

Keep three copies, on two types of media, with one stored offline or offsite.

Install antivirus software

Reputable endpoint protection catches known malware before it can execute.

Secure your Wi-Fi

Use WPA3 or WPA2, a strong router password, and a separate guest network.

Lock devices

A PIN, password, or biometric lock keeps a lost device from becoming a data breach.

Security Tip of the Day

Never reuse passwords across accounts.
