Safety is very important in today’s digital age. There are lots of scandalous activities here and there. So, it's time to beef up our securities, especially if we use online for financial transactions. I've got some basic tips to share with you.

1). Use strong passwords for all your accounts and always keep software updated.

2). Don't just click on links without having to do adequate research.

What online safety tips do you adopt?
 
I use two-factor authentication which I think it's the best for securing my accounts. I also keep my social media accounts private and I'm mindful of online friendships. I trained myself to spot the red flag immediately. I don't believe in scheme that seems too good to be true.
 
I always use password managers and I use a very strong password. I don't use easily predictable passwords. The password manager I used is from the browser, but I don't know how safe it is. Can anyone tell me about it?

If you're using Chrome, it's only as safe as your computer username's password as I believe it's encrypted with that — at least I think so, as if I try to view my passwords from the password manager, it prompts me for my Windows username's password, which is strong, but somehow I managed to memorize it.
 
The most important thing is do not share personal information. You will be easy target of scammers. Do not share too many pictures, your pictures will be abused. Do not use the same password for multiple websites
