5 Simple Ways to Stay Safe Online

Most online threats can be stopped with a few simple habits.

1. Use strong, unique passwords

Reused passwords let one breach unlock everything.

Fix: Use a password manager.

2. Turn on two‑factor authentication

Passwords alone aren't enough.

Fix: Enable 2FA on email, banking and social media.

3. Spot phishing emails

Fake emails try to steal logins.

Fix: Check the sender and never click unexpected links.

4. Keep devices updated

Updates fix security holes.

Fix: Turn on automatic updates.

5. Back up your data

Ransomware can lock your files.

Fix: Keep a backup that isn't always connected.
