Why I've Been M.I.A.: Revamping My Security After the LastPass Breach


Dear readers of The Sunday Journalist,

I hope this blog post finds you well. It's been a while since I last posted, and I wanted to share with you why that is.

As many of you know, there was a recent security breach at LastPass, a popular password manager. The breach was a wake-up call to me and many others who have relied on these services to store our sensitive information. In light of this, I decided to step back from blogging and focus on revamping my security.

I looked closely at all my online accounts, from email to social media, and evaluated their privacy and security settings. I used strong, unique passwords for each account and enabled two-factor authentication wherever possible. This involved updating all of my passwords, which was a time-consuming but necessary task. Which I am still working on.

In addition to these steps, I also took the time to educate myself on best practices for online security, the dangers of phishing scams, the importance of keeping software up-to-date, and how to spot suspicious activity on my accounts.

I understand that these types of breaches can be concerning, and I wanted to take proactive steps to protect my information. I hope that sharing my experience will encourage others to do the same.

My security revamp is now almost complete, and I will be back to blogging soon. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.

Best regards,
