SAFE PRACTICE LAB

📱 Security Checkup

Review practical security habits and find areas where you can improve.

Complete your security checkup

Check each statement that is true for you. This is an educational self-audit, not a technical security scan.

I use a unique, strong password for important accounts. Reusing passwords can allow one compromised account to affect others. I use two-factor authentication on important accounts. 2FA adds another verification step beyond your password. I keep my phone, computer, browser, and apps updated. Updates can include security fixes for known vulnerabilities. I check unexpected links before opening them. Inspect the destination and consider why the message was sent. I avoid entering sensitive information on untrusted public Wi-Fi. Use trusted networks or appropriate protections when handling sensitive activity. I review privacy and security settings on important accounts. Check recovery options, active sessions, permissions, and privacy controls. I keep important files backed up. Backups can help recover from device loss, accidental deletion, or malware. I pause when a message creates urgency or asks for sensitive information. Pressure and unexpected requests are common warning signs in scams.

Keep improving

A security checkup is a snapshot, not a guarantee. Revisit your settings regularly and learn more about the areas where you found gaps.
