5 quick ways to secure your iPhone

With hacking making the news every few weeks, it's high time to take a moment and tighten our digital defenses. Apple makes tons of privacy and security tools available, but it's up to you to make the most of them.

1 Use a Strong & Unique iPhone Passcode

Your passcode is the entry point to your digital security; with the keys to the gate, an attacker can walk right past the walls. With only your iPhone (and the passwords it saves), you can log in to most of your online accounts, so don't make it easy! Make sure your iPhone has a passcode on it and use a 6-digit code rather than 4. To set your iPhone passcode, go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode (or Touch ID & Passcode) > Turn Passcode On. You can also change your passcode on that same screen if you'd like to set a stronger one.

2 Protect Your Passcode
