✅ Always enable two-factor authentication. The app, not SMS!
✅ Take password security seriously. Never re-use passwords between different accounts!
✅ Protect yourself from phishing attacks. Don't click that link from unknown senders!
✅ And protect your devices!

#PLDTHacked
✅ Avoid sharing too much information on social media. Do not post the ff info:
-Names of family members (esp your mother’s maiden name)
-Your date of birth
-Where you were born
-Where you went to college
-Names of pets
-Old or current addresses
-Details about daily routines
✅ Set up a password manager like @1Password or @LastPass to manage all of your various login credentials for you. They can also generate ultra-secure passwords for all your different accounts. #PLDTHacked
✅ Protect your password resets: YOUR EMAIL!

Always select "require personal information to reset password" in Account Settings, and ensure your “secret questions” are strong ones. #PLDTHacked
✅ Regularly check your account activity and delete third-party account connections.

Log out of all sessions but the current one, and revoke account authorizations for any devices and apps you don't recognize or don't use anymore. #PLDTHacked
✅ Check http://HaveIBeenPwned.com  to see if your data or login credentials were leaked in recent data breaches. #PLDTHacked
For those who want to take it up a notch:

✅ Change your passwords regularly, ALL OF THEM! You can use password managers for this.

✅ And use a secret email address (one that doesn’t really relate to your name) solely for logging into your social media accounts.

✅ Stay informed and keep up with the tech news, the latest threats, and breaches.
