Spring is here and many of us will spend the Easter break decluttering our homes and gardens.

But What about our Tech? Spending a little time tidying up devices can go a long way toward enhancing your security and peace of mind online.

So Ask yourself. Do I still use this app If not, delete it. Outdated apps, connections, and permissions could leave you susceptible to a Cyber Attack. Have you put off installing the latest OS updates? What about updates to software and apps. Now is a good time to set aside some time to get everything up to date.

Also its a good time to clean out your email account. Ask yourself if you really need that news letter. If not unsubscribe. Reset your password and look at setting up two factor authentication. With email being one of the top threats, some simple house keeping could help you stay safe
