Six fixes that matter most

You don't need to become a security expert. These six steps stop most of the everyday threats, and each one takes less than an hour.

1. 01

   Use a password manager

   One strong, unique password for every account, and you only remember one. When a site is breached, the damage stops there.

2. 02

   Turn on two-step sign-in

   Add a second step to email, banking and social accounts. An authenticator app or a passkey beats a text message.

3. 03

   Update everything

   Phone, computer, browser and router. Most attacks use holes that already have a fix. Turn on automatic updates and forget it.

4. 04

   Prune app permissions

   Check which apps can see your location, microphone, camera and contacts. If an app doesn't need it, switch it off.

5. 05

   Freeze your credit

   In the US a freeze is free at Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. It stops anyone from opening new credit in your name.

6. 06

   Block the trackers

   Use a browser that blocks third-party trackers by default, and a search engine that doesn't build a profile of you.
