Protect yourself on public Wi-Fi
Airport, café and hotel networks are open to anyone nearby. A VPN encrypts your connection so others on the network can’t read what you’re doing.
Good security isn’t complicated. A handful of everyday habits keep your accounts, devices and personal info in your hands — here are the ones that matter most.
Airport, café and hotel networks are open to anyone nearby. A VPN encrypts your connection so others on the network can’t read what you’re doing.
A long passphrase for each account beats one clever password reused everywhere. A password manager remembers them all so you don’t have to.
Add a second step — an app code or a security key — so your password alone can’t unlock your account.
Updates quietly close security gaps. Switch on automatic updates for your phone and apps and you’re always covered.
Preview a link by hovering or long-pressing before you open it. If you’re unsure, type the address in yourself.
A passcode or Face ID keeps your data private if a device is ever lost, borrowed or left unattended.
Regular backups turn a lost or broken device into a minor hiccup instead of a disaster.
Look for the padlock in your browser and download apps from official stores to avoid tampered versions.
