A practical guide to staying safe, online and at home
Written for family and friends who are not technical: what to set up on your phone and accounts, and what to keep at home for a few days without power, water or signal.
Why this guide, and why now
We live in uncertain times. Scams and account theft are rising, and power cuts, storms or a situation like COVID-19 can leave a household on its own for a few days.
Being prepared does not take much: a few settings on your phone and accounts, and a few things kept at home. This guide shows you which ones, in plain words, one step at a time. It is free.
