To configure your email settings for better security:
- Keep your password secure and change it periodically:
Use a unique and strong password that you don’t use for any other account; periodically change it and don’t share it with anyone. - Enable two-factor authentication:
Many email providers offer two-factor authentication to protect your account from unauthorized access. Check if your provider supports this feature. - Verify all third-party apps and services:
Many third-party apps and services require access to your email account; make sure you verify who you are granting access to before authorizing them. - Keep your software up to date:
Run the latest updates for your email provider’s application and be sure to update your operating system regularly with the latest security patches.
