Use strong passwords and enable screen lock Always set a strong password or PIN. Avoid simple combinations like 1234 or your birthdate. Use biometric locks like fingerprint or face unlock for added safety. It’s a small step but adds a big layer of protection.
Update your apps and phone regularly App and system updates often include important security fixes. If you skip them, your phone stays exposed to known bugs. Turn on auto-updates or make it a habit to check manually every few days.
Avoid using public Wi-Fi without a VPN Free Wi-Fi in cafes or airports might be tempting, but it’s often not secure. Hackers can steal your data if you're not careful. If you must use public Wi-Fi, always use a trusted VPN to keep your connection private.

Be careful with app permissions Some apps ask for unnecessary access to your contacts, location, or camera. Always read what permissions an app is asking for. If it feels like too much, say no or uninstall the app. Less access means fewer chances of your data being misused.
