Staying safe online
Most problems with online accounts start with one of three things: a reused password, a message that created urgency, or a sign-in on a device that was not yours. This course closes all three, in plain steps, without technical background.

Who it is for
Everyone. Especially anyone who uses the same password in more than one place.
What it is not
It does not tell you how much to spend on anything. Those are your decisions. It does not cover anything that depends on your personal circumstances; for that, a qualified professional is the right place to go.
