To mitigate these threats, individuals can use strong, unique passwords for all their accounts, install security software on their devices, secure their home with locks and a security system, be aware of their surroundings and trust their instincts, and be cautious when giving out personal information or money.
- To protect personal information online and offline, individuals can use strong and unique passwords, enable two-factor authentication on their accounts, be cautious about clicking on links or downloading attachments from unknown sources, use a secure browser when conducting sensitive transactions, and keep their personal documents and information in a safe place.

- When traveling, individuals can take steps to ensure their personal safety by staying in well-lit and populated areas, being aware of their surroundings, avoiding carrying large amounts of cash or valuable items, and keeping copies of important documents in a safe place. If traveling internationally, they should also research the safety and security situation in the destination and take appropriate precautions.
