Every device is
    a potential entry point.

    Our guides help you harden your phones, computers, routers, and smart home devices — so attackers can't get a foothold.

    The foundations

    Four steps to secure every device

    These fundamentals apply to every phone, laptop, router, and smart device you own.

    Step 1

    Update everything

    Firmware, operating systems, and apps — updates patch the vulnerabilities attackers exploit.

    Step 2

    Change default passwords

    Default credentials are publicly known. Change them on every router, camera, and IoT device.

    Step 3

    Secure your network

    Use WPA3 encryption, hide your SSID, and create a separate network for smart devices.

    Step 4

    Configure & harden

    Enable firewalls, disable unused services, and review app permissions on every device.
