- [Narrator] We love computers,

0:00:02.050,0:00:04.160
from our tablets to our laptops,

0:00:04.160,0:00:06.160
we can't seem to get enough of them.

0:00:06.160,0:00:07.570
But do you ever think about

0:00:07.570,0:00:09.620
how safe your personal information is

0:00:09.620,0:00:11.640
while using your devices?

0:00:11.640,0:00:14.180
That's what we thought, no judgment.

0:00:14.180,0:00:16.730
Here are four easy things you can do today

0:00:16.730,0:00:18.170
to be safer online.

0:00:18.170,0:00:19.147
First things first,

0:00:19.147,0:00:21.720
it's time to clean out your email account.

0:00:21.720,0:00:24.210
That passport scan from[br]your last trip abroad

0:00:24.210,0:00:25.440
or your monthly phone bill

0:00:25.440,0:00:27.080
are juicy bits of information

0:00:27.080,0:00:29.940
that make it easy for someone[br]to steal your identity.

0:00:29.940,0:00:31.450
Get to inbox zero.

0:00:31.450,0:00:33.040
If you want to save anything,

0:00:33.040,0:00:34.250
download it to your computer

0:00:34.250,0:00:35.890
and delete it from your account.

0:00:35.890,0:00:38.030
Don't forget to empty out your trash, too.

0:00:38.030,0:00:42.420
Next up, it's everyone's[br]favorite topic, passwords.

0:00:42.420,0:00:43.930
Go through all of your accounts

0:00:43.930,0:00:46.030
and start cleaning up your passwords.

0:00:46.030,0:00:49.560
Adding a 1 or exclamation point[br]to your old trusty password

0:00:49.560,0:00:51.640
just doesn't cut it anymore.

0:00:51.640,0:00:54.020
Upgrade to passwords[br]that are harder to hack,

0:00:54.020,0:00:57.140
aka long, unique, and random.

0:00:57.140,0:00:58.800
If that sounds like too much,

0:00:58.800,0:01:01.570
get a password manager[br]like Firefox Lockwise.

0:01:01.570,0:01:03.460
And just like that, boom,

0:01:03.460,0:01:05.910
say goodbye to the forgot password button.

0:01:05.910,0:01:07.660
Once you've secured your accounts,

0:01:07.660,0:01:10.260
update your software across the board.

0:01:10.260,0:01:11.800
Clicking remind me tomorrow

0:01:11.800,0:01:14.220
won't make the annoying pop ups go away,

0:01:14.220,0:01:15.550
you know who you are.

0:01:15.550,0:01:18.690
Plus updating your[br]software, operating system,

0:01:18.690,0:01:22.290
and browser protects you[br]against viruses and malware.

0:01:22.290,0:01:24.100
Pro tip, switch to a browser

0:01:24.100,0:01:26.040
that also protects your privacy.

0:01:26.040,0:01:28.050
From your laptop to your phone,

0:01:28.050,0:01:31.950
Firefox has you covered against[br]nosy advertisers by default.

0:01:31.950,0:01:34.310
As we move from one screen to the next,

0:01:34.310,0:01:36.930
a little detox can play a huge role

0:01:36.930,0:01:41.063
in keeping our devices healthy[br]and our information safe.
