For Families: Enable Disappearing Messages and Auto-Clear Browsing Data

Turn on disappearing messages in Signal or WhatsApp for family chats to reduce the amount of sensitive information stored on devices over time. Configure browsers to automatically clear cookies, browsing history, and cached files when they close. These settings can help reduce the amount of recoverable information available if a device is lost, stolen, or compromised.

For Adults: Turn on Login Alerts and Review Connected Devices

Enable security notifications for email accounts, cloud services, and social media platforms so you receive alerts when new devices log in. Review connected devices and third-party app permissions at least once a month and remove anything unfamiliar. Regular account audits can help identify unauthorized access before it develops into a larger security issue.
