Consider these key practices to enhance your email security: 

    • Use Strong, Unique Passwords - Use a password manager and avoid reusing passwords. 
    • Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) - Choose a 2FA and set it up for all accounts.
    • Be Cautious with Email Attachments and Links - Verify the sender, scan attachments, and don't click on suspicious links.
    • Keep Your Email Software Update - Enable automatic updates. 
    • Use Encryption for Sensitive Emails - Encrypt emails containing sensitive information and educate recipients. 
    • Watch Your Email Activity - Set up activity alerts, regularly review account activity, and respond quickly to suspicious activity.
