Practice Data Minimization
The safest data is the data you don’t have. Be intentional about the information you collect and store. Only keep what is absolutely necessary for your work. Regularly audit your devices and accounts to delete old, irrelevant, or sensitive data that is no longer needed. This practice reduces your attack surface and limits the damage if a breach occurs.
