- Require strong passwords and multifactor authentication (MFA). Eliminate weak credentials and add critical verification layers.
- Update software promptly. Install patches immediately to close vulnerabilities before exploitation.
- Back up and encrypt data. Protect critical information with redundancy and encryption protocols.
