A Few mind blowing security suggestions

Actually............... these are just simple but powerful suggestions

1.  Change Default Passwords and DON'T share them
2. Use 2 factor authentication wherever possible and use SMS / Email alerts for all important transactions (Banking, Credit Card)
3. Use a password manager and create a strong password for its use.
4. Pass-phrases are better than passwords
5. Patch / Update all devices that can connect to Internet
6. Always presume free Wi-Fi connections as unsafe so, use HTTPS or VPN
7. Remember  - IRS will communicate only by Postal mail. All other IRS related emails are generally FAKE.
8. "Think Before you Ink" is an old proverb , the new one is "Think before you CLICK".  This applies to both Internet connections and emails.(This will save you from embarrassment  and could save your job)
9. Remember , you are a TARGET to Hackers so, be VIGILANT
10. Remember "Nothing is free" and if something is too good to be true  then it probably is.
11. Backup you data and disconnect your backup device from the computer. This  will help if/when you are hit by Ransomware
12. Do NOT RELY on Anti-Virus, Anti-Malware and other fancy tools as they  can ONLY provide basic protection.

(Here is something that is strange but true)

The best security tool for you, your computer, your home and your job is YOU.
