Watch: Security Hacks to Protect Yourself in 2024
Home Security Hack: Make Your Home a Fortress, Not a Target
Forget overgrown lawns and overflowing mailboxes. Smart security is in. Think like a thief: trimmed bushes, a secure door, well-lit corners – these deter unwanted visitors. Bonus points for a doorbell camera! Don't forget, a protected home is a happy home (and boosts curb appeal!).
Online Safety Hack: Social Media Savvy, Not Over-Sharing
Before you hit "post," think twice. Social media is a double-edged sword. What you share today could haunt you tomorrow. For kids, online safety is crucial. Limit their exposure, protect their image, and teach them the power (and dangers) of digital footprints.
Situational Awareness Hack: The Parking Lot Observer
Parking lots hold hidden clues. Pay attention! A messy lot might hint at internal issues, while suspicious activity could signal potential trouble. Remember, the Nashville shooter parked their car before the attack. Be vigilant and trust your gut.
Privacy Hack: Embrace the Secure Email
Tired of spam and data breaches? Get a new email address just for family and close friends. Use a secure service like ProtonMail, and keep it private. No more discount sign-ups, school forms, or business – this email is for your inner circle only.
Training Hack: Invest in Yourself, Be a Lifelong Learner
First aid, firearms courses, situational awareness training – invest in your skills every year.
The more prepared you are, the better you can handle any situation. Online and in-person options abound, so take the time to learn and grow.
