Best Practices for Gadget Security

Use Strong Passwords: Create unique, complex passwords for every device and account

Enable Two-Factor Authentication: Add an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized access

[{"selector":"#anim-09679835-8c1f-4d6f-b267-b6fa935be1ca","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-129.62964%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e118bd5f-732c-4f27-96ab-13b6c53a5abf","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-04d0525a-9d9d-420e-91d9-78e26153a4b0","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Regular Software Updates: Keep firmware and apps updated to fix vulnerabilities

[{"selector":"#anim-11951d59-6532-43e6-9ed9-f9dc25017a81","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-132.39999%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a6e76385-bec0-434c-ab60-979b0fdb65b0","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0b4553a7-4770-4264-aaeb-232747d9f04f","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Secure Wi-Fi Networks: Use encryption protocols like WPA3 for safer connectivity
