  • If you share internet you definitely need a vpn. Anyone who can log into the router can see your exact internet history. Depending on the exact situation you can also set up vlans, but only if the other person cant just simply disable them at the end point (router). Maybe you can setup your own router behind the current one with a build-in always-on vpn.

    Custom email aliases and password managers are great just in case one account gets hacked they cant just use that account to log into other sites.

    Viruses, just don’t click on suspect links, check for phising etc in emails, harden your browser by blocking JavaScript as much is possible without it breaking the websites. And don’t use windows, since most viruses target that. Linux and Mac are less targeted and have better build in security.

    And update all your stuff regularly, even things like router firmware.

    Oh and don’t attach iot products to the internet, those usually have terrible security and can be used to break into your network. Block them in the router (again, having your own router helps) and preferably put then on their own vlan.
