Your technician works through each device with you, looking for the tell-tale signs scammers leave behind.

  • Text-message and call history red flags
  • App permissions (SMS, screen, accessibility)
  • Lost-phone protection and screen lock

Email & accounts

  • Two-step verification turned on

Browsers & internet

3 · Prevention software

We install and configure the right protection for your devices, then show you how it works. No confusing settings left for you to figure out.

Security suite

Reputable antivirus and anti-malware, set up properly and set to update itself.

Scam-site blocking

Protective DNS filtering that blocks known scam, phishing and fake shopping sites for every device on your Wi-Fi.

Browser protection

Safe-browsing, pop-up and malicious-ad blocking, so fake 'virus alert' screens can't appear.

Call & SMS filtering

Unknown-caller silencing and scam-text filtering switched on for iPhone and Android.

Password manager

Strong, unique passwords for every account, so one leak can't unlock the rest.

Two-step verification

Extra login protection on email, bank, myGov and social media.

Alerts & updates

Automatic system updates plus bank transaction alerts so anything odd shows up fast.

Automatic backups

Your photos and documents backed up, so ransomware can't hold them hostage.
