    #5 is so important. I can't stand it when people refuse to update their system, you need security updates! I care a lot about privacy, significantly more than most people, yet I always stay on top of security updates. There's a reason for this! To anybody reading this, you can easily set your windows PC to only give security updates and not feature updates, if that's your thing. Many tutorials or tools online to do it :D
    Great video as always!

      If you're on Linux, sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade!! Your system and programs will all update to all security fixes.

      @@LironSegev In most cases it's because they believe that "updates break things".
      - user updates operating system
      - user /vendor does not update application
      - operating system update results in application no longer functioning.
      - erroneous conclusion: "the update broke my app, therefore OS updates are bad'
      [- correct conclusion: 'my app needs an update, and until it gets one it is vulnerable to whatever security concern was just patched it shouldn't be run and should probably be uninstalled for safety. My lazy vendor/end of life software is bad']

    Thanks, Liron, with the click unsubscribe link, I don't click that, if I see it as strange mail, I'll mark it as spam, and/or make a filter in Gmail to automatically delete those emails.
    All others I do as your video said, as I feel that is just common sense.
    Take care

      common sense I'm afraid isn't that common....its a numbers game: do enough of these and someone will click - its just a matter of time and catching someone who is unfocused. Happens all the time even tot he most tech savvy person.

    Besides having finger/face scans, my phone doesn't use a 4 digit pin for backup. It has an 8 digit alphanumeric password. Further, all the IMPORTANT apps are locked and have to be unlocked the same way as the phone and their backup isn't the password, it is a 4 digit pin. And once opened, if I change screens for something, I have to unlock the bank app for example, to continue where I left off. A little bit of a nuisance/slow down, but well worth it...

    In reference to putting your smart devices on a different network ... what about streaming devices? How vulnerable are they?

    • @LironSegev
      @LironSegev  Месяц назад +4

      For me, any device that I bring into the home, I ask a simple question: does that device need to access my main computer or my NAS or my printer? If the answer is no, and all it needs is internet access then I put it on the other network.

    • @LironSegev

  • @ELO_Dude
    @ELO_Dude Месяц назад

    I'm curious, why wouldn't you put your smart devices on the dedicated IoT network instead of the guest network? That is also isolated from your main network, no?

    • @LironSegev
      @LironSegev  Месяц назад +1

      Yes. Not of these are just genetic names. Most routers call it a guest network, but this specific one has one called IoT. Either way, all these are just vlans that are separate from your main network.

    about the sponsor links, does an adblocker that blocks malicious links can help here?

    • @LironSegev
      @LironSegev  Месяц назад +3

      Yes and no. If the malicious link is known, then it will block it. However what they do is use links that redirect to various sites. As one is flagged, they change the redirection to another one.

    I have to comment. If people created a different password for every site, then ain't no one ever getting back to those sites 'cause every one will have forgotten what password they used end of story. There must be a better way. I don't know what it is, but your advice to have a different password for everything is useless advice. To do so means people will have to write this stuff down. Give us something else.

    I refuse to use fingerprint readers as a key to _anything._ They have a statistical error rate of around 10%, meaning one time out of ten they won't unlock for you and one time out of ten they'll give access to someone who isn't supposed to have access. I've also found on my friend's Android phone if I tap on the fingerprint icon rapidly, it usually unlocks the phone for me.
