Build a safer browsing routine
Step 1 of 5: Keep the browser current
Check its official update instructions or app-store updates. Install available updates and restart when requested. Older unsupported software may not receive current security fixes.
✓ Step complete. You can practise it again.
Step 2 of 5: Inspect the address
Before signing in or paying, check the website address rather than just its logo. Use a saved trusted bookmark for important services and be careful with sponsored search results.
✓ Step complete. You can practise it again.
Step 3 of 5: Take warnings seriously
If your browser displays an unsafe-site or insecure-connection warning, stop and check the genuine address. Do not bypass the warning to claim a prize or complete an unexpected payment.
✓ Step complete. You can practise it again.
Step 4 of 5: Limit permissions and downloads
Only allow camera, microphone or notifications when needed for a task you chose. Download software from its genuine publisher or official store. Decline surprise update prompts inside unrelated webpages.
✓ Step complete. You can practise it again.
Step 5 of 5: Finish sensitive tasks carefully
Sign out on shared devices, close private account pages and avoid saving credentials where others have access. Review browser permissions if an unwanted site keeps sending notifications.
✓ Step complete. You can practise it again.

A common question.
Does private or incognito mode make every website safe?
No. Private browsing mainly changes what the browser retains locally. It does not make a seller honest or remove the need to check links and permissions.
