Ransomware. Viruses. Data breaches. Phishing emails. Website defacement. Ad network hijacking. These are just some of the cyber threats that everyone needs to be aware of and on guard against in the second quarter century of the World Wide Web.

The Internet can be incredibly useful, but it’s also home to many bad neighborhoods and bad actors. Learn how to factor security into your choices for web hosting, browsing, payment processing, themes, and plugins — and how to secure the desktop and mobile operating systems you already use.

By changing your defaults, you’ll be much better protected against the hive of scum and villainy on the Internet that would do you harm.
