Most Important: Section Introduction

As the name implies, this section is full of techniques and services that apply to everyone everywhere (generally speaking). This section is related to issues like cyber security, identity theft, and mobile devices. Doing these few techniques will dramatically improve your security in today’s increasingly digital landscape. This section covers the following:

• How Data Breaches Really Work
• How to Make (and Remember) Good Passwords
• Multifactor Authentication
• Private Payments (AKA Never Get Your Card Number Stolen Again)
• What a Credit Freeze is (and Why You Should Freeze Yours)
• Securing Mobile Devices
• Recommended Mobile Settings
• Recommended Mobile Apps
• Private/Secure Internet Browsing

While there is a lot to this section, it is critical information that will make you harder to hack than the average person, which will deter would-be criminals and likely make them give up in search of easier prey. If you only read one section of this site, I recommend you make it this one. All of these techniques are free and easy, and once you adjust to the new settings/apps/etc you will notice little or no change in your day-to-day life.
