Hands-on Course · For Everyone

Nobody picked you. You were scanned.

Machines attack your accounts around the clock, and they don't care who you are. Give this course one afternoon and walk away properly set up: a password manager you'll actually use, real two-factor, passkeys, and alerts that watch for trouble while you sleep.

The brief

What you'll walk away with

  1. 01How break-ins actually happen

    Credential stuffing, breach dumps, and why your email address is the master key to everything else.

  2. 02Passwords, done once

    What makes a password strong, and a password manager set up for real, not just installed.

  3. 032FA and passkeys

    The upgrade ladder from SMS codes to a real passkey you’ll create right on the page.

  4. 04Devices that defend themselves

    The unglamorous settings that stop real attacks, and straight answers on VPNs and antivirus.

  5. 05A router you’ve actually logged into

    Your home network, configured on purpose for once.

  6. 06An early-warning system

    Breach alerts that work while you sleep, protections on the money itself, and a 15-minute quarterly checklist.

“Each layer you add takes you off a different list. Add enough layers and the machines move on.”

Who it's for

People with accounts

Complete beginners

If you have an email address and a phone, you’re the audience. Nothing here assumes you know anything about security.

Busy people

This course is more doing than reading. Each module leaves something set up that keeps working after you close the tab.

The family fixer

If you’re the one everyone calls for tech help, this course hands you the checklist you’ve been improvising for years.

Start now

Give it an afternoon, and it’s handled.

A few hours of setup takes you off the lists that automated attacks are built on. Free, no account needed, certificate at the end.

Or warm up in the Practice Lab — a pretend computer where you can rehearse the hands-on steps first.
