Netflix's "You" highlights just how simple it can be for someone to use modern resources to learn crazy amounts of personal information about you. Smart devices are powerful tools, so learn how to protect yourself from all aspects! Caution: light spoilers ahead.

Lack of Passwords
Don't let strangers, especially stalkers, snoop through your tech.

Passwords are one of the easiest ways to protect your personal information. Beck may have learned the hard way, but you don't have to. All portable digital devices should be protected with a strong password or code. We also recommend two-factor authentication for accounts with sensitive information.

Poor Lost Phone Procedures
Your phone may be gone, but the information inside could haunt you forever.

Beck not only lacked passwords on her smartphone, but failed to protect her information when she "lost" it. Lost your phone? You can delete data on it remotely as long as you set this up before.

Oversharing on Social Media
Some things should stay private.

Take it from Joe: snooping on social media can be a breeze if accounts are public. Not only can personal information be at risk, but your physical location may also be exposed when posting on a public profile. Set your account to private and disable location services to ensure your security.
