8 steps to assess the security of your email

Are the security features of your email service enabled?

Look for features like two-factor authentication, encryption, and spam filtering. If your email service provider doesn’t offer these features, consider switching to a more secure email service.

Is your password strong enough?

Create a strong and unique password for your email account, and avoid using the same password for multiple accounts.

Are you using two-factor authentication?

Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your email account by requiring you to enter a verification code in addition to your password.

Are your email settings properly configured?

Ensure that you are using SSL/TLS encryption for incoming and outgoing email traffic. Also, disable the automatic downloading of images and attachments in your email client.

Are your eyes trained to detect phishing emails?

Phishing emails can be difficult to detect, but some red flags to look out for include unfamiliar sender addresses, misspellings, and requests for personal information

Are you using reputable antivirus software?

An antivirus software can help detect and remove malware and other threats.

Do you regularly update your email client and operating system?

Keep your email client and operating system up-to-date to address any security vulnerabilities.

Do you log out of your email account after each session?

Always log out of your email account after each session, especially if you are using a public computer or shared device.
