The Hardening Checklist
Close the easy doors. Keep the technology you use.
Most digital risk doesn't come from one dramatic mistake. It builds up through small things: devices that connect automatically, settings you never changed, accounts protected by old passwords, updates you meant to install, and features running long after you stopped using them.
The Hardening Checklist gives you a practical way to work through those exposures one at a time—without turning your phone, your network, or your daily routine into an IT project.
Three places to close the easy doors
The Hardening Checklist works through three parts of your digital life: the devices you use, the network that connects them, and the habits and accounts that follow you everywhere.
Start with the Quick Wins. Then build from there when you have the time.
Your Devices
Work through the phone, laptop and everyday devices you carry—from Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections to updates, app permissions, passwords and encryption.
Your Home Network
Check the router and Wi-Fi settings connecting everything at home, including passwords, firmware, smart-device separation and unnecessary remote features.
Your Habits & Identity
Reduce exposure from reused passwords, account settings, data brokers, advertising profiles and the information you leave behind online.
