Personal security checklist

After leading my first Intro to Security for Developers workshop, I noticed my attendees felt worried and overwhelmed afterwards instead of empowered. They didn’t know where to start in securing their personal accounts and devices.

My personal security checklist is a list of next actions that attendees can immediately complete after a digital security training. Though the checklist is on GitHub it’s not targeted at only developers. I list what I believe are the security essentials that everyone regardless of their job or threat model should configure.

I gave a quick presentation on my personal security checklist at Round 41: Polka Sprockets of DC Hack and Tell on February 16th, 2017.
