I build my Windows security from the ground and up.. via installation help from:
WE WILL HELP YOU TO INSTALL WINDOWS CORRECTLY
This means:
- Separating the Administrators account from my user-account (that is an regular User-account with proper UAC-settings)
- proper privacy-settings that heavily reduses the snooping from ad-companies, Microsoft etc....
- all the security related settings mentioned here:
Help-files? What do they do! (as you see they are way too many to print here!)
- Since I have an Office-licens we all use OneDrive as an Off site storage for all our important private files.
- Most of us USE THE WINGUIDER-METHOD TO EASILY CREATE MORE SECURE PASSWORDS (found here:
Tips & Trix) combined with help to:
- PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNTS FROM UNWANTED PASSWORD CHANGES! also found in the above Tips& trix (It seems like: Way to many people beleive that security products CREATE proper security, and even forgets to user more secure passwords.. not to mention those who always sign in with administrative rights)
- And in my router I have activated the guest-network, that I use for my Smart-tvs and my other IOT-things.. to keep them off our "own" wifi network.
- And to that I use an antivirus software of my choise on every suitable unit..
That is just about it!
