#4 – Lock Your Screen When You Walk Away
Locking your screen is one of the quickest and easiest ways to protect your work.
Why it matters
An unlocked computer can lead to:
- Unauthorized access to sensitive information
- Accidental or intentional changes to files
- Confidential data being viewed or copied
- Someone sending messages or emails under your name
How to lock your screen instantly
- Windows: Press Windows + L
- Mac: Press Control + Command + Q
These shortcuts take less than a second and secure your device immediately.
Whether you're leaving for a meeting, grabbing coffee, or stepping away for just a moment, lock your screen every time. It’s a simple habit that provides big protection.
