A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a secure connection between two or more devices. It encrypts your Internet traffic and hides your IP address, helping to protect your online privacy.
Use a secure browser such as Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome that offers additional privacy features such as tracking protection to help protect your online activity.
Use strong passwords that are unique to each account and change them regularly.
Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on all of your online accounts to add an extra layer of security.
Use a password manager to help you keep track of all your passwords and store them securely.
Avoid oversharing personal information like your home address, phone number and date of birth on social media.
Beware of phishing scams that try to get you to enter personal information on a website that looks legitimate but is actually malicious.
Whenever you enter personal information, be sure to use secure websites whose addresses begin with https://.
Do not click suspicious links in emails or websites, as these may lead to malicious websites.
Use ad blockers to prevent websites from tracking your online activity.
