Preview of the eight things we’ll ask about — no device scan.

Self-reported safeguards

Eight questions you can answer honestly: email protection, password reuse, updates, screen locks, unexpected sign-in links, backups, router hygiene, and breach review.

Observe

Observed in this browser

We only note what this page can honestly see: whether this checkup is encrypted, that a public network address is visible as with nearly every website, and that browser freshness stays uncertain.

Statement

A receipt, not a score

Results land in Fix now, Improve next, Already protected, and Reported in place. There is no unexplained percentage, and finishing does not mean you are fully secure.

The household ledger

The printout in the window is the same eight safeguards you will answer, in order: email, passwords, updates, locks, unexpected sign-ins, backups, the home router, and breach review.

  1. 01

    Protect your main email

    Your email can reset the passwords for most of your other accounts.

  2. 02

    Stop password reuse

    One leaked password should not unlock several accounts.

  3. 03

    Enable automatic updates

    Updates close known weaknesses that attackers actively reuse.

  4. 04

    Lock every device

    A screen lock limits damage if a device is lost or stolen.

  5. 05

    Verify unexpected sign-ins

    Fake login pages are designed to steal passwords and verification codes.

  6. 06

    Create a recoverable backup

    A backup protects against loss, device failure, and ransomware.

  7. 07

    Check your home router

    The router is the shared entry point for devices on your home network.

  8. 08

    Review breach exposure

    A breach can expose credentials that are still being reused elsewhere.

What this checkup will not do

  • It will not certify your phone, laptop, or home network.
  • It will not collect passwords, emails, or account logins.
  • It will not scan other people’s computers or open ports.
  • It will not sell a “you are secure” badge.

Questions people ask first

Does this certify that I am secure?
No. It is a short, prioritized plan from eight self-reported safeguards and a few modest observations about this page.
Do I need an account?
No login, and answers stay in this browser session. We do not collect passwords or email addresses.
Why can you not just scan my devices?
A website cannot safely read those settings. Each answer is labelled self-reported so the evidence stays honest.
Is there a security score?
No unexplained percentage. Progress is only how much of this checkup you have reviewed.
What happens after I finish?
You get a security receipt grouped into Fix now, Improve next, Already protected, and Reported in place — the same eight safeguards, as a statement.
