Tip 19: ENCRYPT YOUR DEVICE

What to do:
Enable encryption from your OS (such as Microsoft BitLocker or Apple FileVault) for your PC. Similar settings may be found on iOS and Android mobile devices.

Why do it?
Even if you set a password on your device, attackers can still get access to your private files and documents. They can do this by booting into their own operating system from a special disc or USB flash drive and reading the data from your hard drive.
