Security Best Practices
Protect your digital life with these essential security guidelines
Essential Password Management
- ✓Use unique, complex passwords for every account
- ✓Enable two-factor authentication whenever possible
- ✓Use our password manager to securely store and generate strong passwords
- ✓Use a long, unique master password — a passphrase of four or more random words works well
Never use the same password across multiple sites. This is one of the most common ways accounts get compromised.
Browser Security Settings
- ✓Keep your browser updated to the latest version
- ✓Enable automatic security updates
- ✓Use HTTPS-only mode when available
- ✓Disable third-party cookies
- ✓Clear browsing data regularly
- ✓Review and manage site permissions
Pro Tip: Use private/incognito mode when accessing sensitive websites on shared computers.
Common Threats to Avoid
- Phishing Attempts: Never click on suspicious links or download unexpected attachments
- Public Wi-Fi: Avoid accessing sensitive accounts on public networks
- Browser Extensions: Only install essential extensions from trusted sources
- Pop-ups: Be cautious of unexpected pop-ups asking for personal information
- Mixed Content: Pay attention to browser security warnings
If a website asks you to enter sensitive information, always verify the URL and security certificate.
Regular Security Checkup
- ✓Review active sessions and log out from unused devices
- ✓Make sure two-factor authentication is turned on
- ✓Make sure you have set up and saved your backup key
- ✓Review connected apps and revoke unnecessary access
- ✓Scan your device for malware regularly
Recommendation: Set a monthly reminder to perform these security checks.
