The 13 Step Guide to Secure Your PC After a Fresh Windows Installation [Updated]. Most security breaches come from user negligence, or lack of knowledge, or just plain laziness. Yes, I know. You are none of those things, are you? Well, let's examine your computer security IQ. Are you using the latest version of Windows? Do you update it when prompted? Do you update your software regularly? Do you use two factor authentication whenever available, even though it requires a little work? Do you regularly create a Restore Point when you make changes to the computer? Do you use a comptetent anti virus and anti malware product like Malwarebytes? Do you back up your entire system to a USB external drive or to the cloud on a regular basis? Do you use User Account Control, even though it adds a screen question to your use? Is your hard drive encrypted? I could go on; but, if you answered no to any of these questions, you need to rethink your security. Be careful out there.
