Setting a security question is a good way to identify yourself as the account owner in case of any mishaps. It is best to keep it secret – don’t write an answer that everybody will know, or is easy to guess! For example:

Check your ‘Active Sessions’ regularly.
Look for unfamiliar devices, locations or operating systems – if you see one that you do not recognize, change your password!

Tips:
- Don’t be afraid to change your password regularly
- Sign up with, or change to a different email address that only you know
- If you fear that you have had your account compromised, don’t wait – do something about it as soon as you know
