Episode summary

There's a lot of ways you can improve your online security. But where should you begin? It can be a daunting question to answer.

Picking your priorities goes a long way. There are 4 simple strategies you can use to get started: activity, threat, value, and speed.

You could prioritize by activity: something you spend a lot of time doing or that makes you nervous.

You could prioritize by threat: a common threat like phishing, or a less common threat relevant to your situation.

You could prioritize by value: maybe your highest priority is keeping your retirement fund safe.

You could prioritize by speed: you want protection, but you are super busy and need to be able to do so quickly and efficiently.
