Why Online Safety Is Worth Taking Seriously
Nowadays, so much of what we do happens online — from banking to shopping. This turns your credentials something worth protecting against theft.
Sadly, a lot of users rely on weak passwords everywhere. When a single site leaks, the rest of them is suddenly at risk.

- A unique password everywhere that never repeats
- A mix of unpredictable characters
- Avoid that anyone could find online
