**Enable Two-Factor Authentication**: Whenever possible, turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) for your gaming accounts. It adds an extra layer of security, so even if someone gets your password, they’ll still need that second step to access your account.

**Use a VPN**: A Virtual Private Network (VPN) can help keep your online activity private and secure, especially when you're on public Wi-Fi. Just make sure to choose a reputable provider!
