I'm putting together a general security awareness session aimed at helping individuals and businesses not get hacked. To play off the lucky number 7, I'm trying to broil this list down to 7 key things to focus on. Here's my list thus far:

  1. Passwords
  2. 2FA/MFA
  3. Wifi (put a good password on it, don't use WEP, don't use WPS
  4. Sign up for HaveIBeenPwned
  5. Update all the things
  6. Block malware/mining with browser plugins
  7. Security awareness training
