Protecting yourself online needs to be a priority. Do not dismiss this as something that happens to others. Do not put this off. You need to secure your information…your privacy. Please please please forward this episode to anyone you know whose using the Internet to promote their business!

Steps to protecting yourself:
#1 – you MUST update the software on all of your programs and apps
#2 – download a password manager
#3 – figure out if your email program has any security risks.
#4 – change your icloud settings
#5 – set a passcode for your phone – if you’re able to, use a finger print
#6 – turn off the mail app on your phone
#7 – turn off the location services for each app
#8 – disconnect apps that connect and share to your social media accounts
