    Software updates: Devices get updates to fix problems
                                                     and stay safe. Installing updates helps your device work

                                                     properly and protects it from hackers.

                          Antivirus and anti-malware: These are special programs

                           that stop viruses and harmful software from making your
                           device sick, just like medicine keeps us healthy.

                                                        Screen lock: A screen lock keeps your device safe when
                                                     you are not using it. It can be a pattern, password, PIN or

                                                     even a fingerprint.

                          Safe downloads: Download apps  or files only from

                           trusted places. Bad apps can steal information or break
                           your device.

                                                         Backing up data: Saving copies of your important files
                                                      and photos helps you get them back if your device stops

                                                      working or gets lost.

                                             “Always lock your device to keep your games, photos and
                                          websites safe and download apps only from trusted stores like
                                                                Google Play or App Store.”
