This alarming statistic emphasizes the need for strong security measures to reduce the risks associated with email usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was scammed during my early years as a social media marketer. I received an urgent email from what seemed to be my bank, asking me to update my account information. Unsuspectingly, I clicked on the link without hesitation and entered my credentials, only to later discover it was a phishing scam. To avoid making this same mistake, here are some tips for enhancing your security on Gmail:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-gmail-security-tips\"><span id=\"gmail-security-tips\">Gmail Security Tips<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-enable-two-factor-authentication-2fa\"><span id=\"1-enable-two-factor-authentication-2fa\">#1. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Google, enabling 2FA can block 99.9% of automated attacks. To enhance the security of your Gmail account, consider activating two-factor authentication. In addition to your password, you will need a second factor, like a code sent to your phone, to access your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how you can enable two-factor authentication:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Open your Google Account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the navigation panel, select Security.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under \u201cHow you sign in to Google,\u201d select 2-Step Verification <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"and then\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/1DaWg1ZfmrgQr2p5hygd5NfADoRUy_-1-HLo8sjKA7fffmxjXJUqhgSCR2-HPCe5uLmnnts0VL6hTafqtTrPxiAp267_1SoKZBgyNwg3b1gkklIavl9JICTbqnkpMoP2BySHQKKXaJiWPkGcDoTom6s\" width=\"19\" height=\"19\"> Get started.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow the on-screen steps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"How to Turn on 2FA on Gmail - Enable Gmail Two Factor Authentication\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/e3Mph7kqE1E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-read-also-gmail-vs-outlook-a-personal-journey-through-the-inbox\"><span id=\"read-also-gmail-vs-outlook-a-personal-journey-through-the-inbox\">Read Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/management\/gmail-vs-outlook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gmail vs. Outlook: A Personal Journey through the Inbox<\/a><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-always-review-account-activity\"><span id=\"2-always-review-account-activity\">#2. Always review account activity<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By monitoring your Gmail account, you can detect potential security breaches early on by looking for unusual login attempts or suspicious activity. Users can track login locations and devices through Google&#8217;s detailed account activity logs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how you can check your account activity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Sign in to your Gmail account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down to the bottom-right corner and click on &#8220;Details&#8221; under &#8220;Last account activity.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Review the list of recent activity, including logins, sessions, and devices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-beware-of-phishing-attempts\"><span id=\"3-beware-of-phishing-attempts\">#3. Beware of phishing attempts<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Scammers send out deceptive emails resembling Gmail to trick you into revealing your password. Criminals often include links in these emails that lead to fake login pages, allowing them to steal your password if you enter it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid falling victim to phishing schemes, refrain from clicking on any links in emails unless you can verify their legitimacy. Hover your mouse over the link to preview its destination before clicking. If you\u2019re using Google Chrome, you can find the address displayed in the bottom left-hand corner of the browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-read-also-cyber-security-assessment-examples-checklist-amp-tools\"><span id=\"read-also-cyber-security-assessment-examples-checklist-tools\">Read Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/management\/cyber-security-assessment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CYBER SECURITY ASSESSMENT:  Examples, Checklist, &amp; Tools<\/a><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-update-software-and-apps-regularly\"><span id=\"4-update-software-and-apps-regularly\">#4.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency emphasizes the importance of timely software updates in mitigating cybersecurity risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How to Perform Software Updates<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>For Windows: Go to Settings &gt; Update &amp; Security &gt; Windows Update.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For macOS: Go to System Preferences &gt; Software Update.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For mobile devices: Go to Settings &gt; System Updates or Software Update.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-use-strong-unique-passwords\"><span id=\"5-use-strong-unique-passwords\">#5. Use strong, unique passwords<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using weak or recycled passwords creates a major security vulnerability, making them susceptible to brute-force attacks or password-spraying techniques. The Google Security Blog recommends using a unique, complex password for each online account to minimize the impact of a potential breach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-use-gmail-s-security-features\"><span id=\"6-use-gmails-security-features\">#6. Use Gmail&#8217;s security features<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Gmail provides a variety of security features, such as spam filtering, malware detection, and encryption. Using these tools can boost your Gmail account&#8217;s security and protect against common threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key Gmail Security Features to Use:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Enable Gmail&#8217;s spam filter to automatically divert suspicious emails to your spam folder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turn on Gmail&#8217;s malware detection to identify and quarantine potentially harmful attachments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use Gmail&#8217;s encryption features to secure your emails in transit and at rest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-read-also-gmail-business-how-it-works-amp-how-to-create-it\"><span id=\"read-also-gmail-business-how-it-works-how-to-create-it\">Read Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/business-branding\/gmail-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GMAIL BUSINESS: How it Works &amp; How to Create it<\/a><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-regularly-back-up-important-emails-nbsp\"><span id=\"7-regularly-back-up-important-emails\">#7.

Understand the features<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding what Gmail offers is a crucial initial step towards organizing your Gmail account. Customize Gmail&#8217;s organizational features to meet your email needs. Here are some of the most common features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tabs\"><span id=\"tabs\">Tabs<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>By default, tabs are referred to as &#8220;categories&#8221; and include &#8220;Primary,&#8221; &#8220;Social,&#8221; and &#8220;Promotions.&#8221; You can also include tabs such as &#8220;Updates&#8221; and &#8220;Forums.&#8221; Gmail automatically categorizes emails into different tabs, reducing clutter from social media, promotional, and newsletter emails in your &#8220;Primary&#8221; tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-folders\"><span id=\"folders\">Folders<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Gmail includes several default folders like &#8220;Inbox,&#8221; &#8220;Trash,&#8221; and &#8220;Sent.&#8221; You can find them in the panel to the left of your Inbox. Make sorting emails simpler by adding others, then move emails into folders manually or automatically sort them by subject line or sender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-labels\"><span id=\"labels\">Labels<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Create a rule to filter emails and apply labels to them as soon as they arrive. Adding multiple labels to an email and assigning it a specific color is possible. Quickly prioritize as you look through your inbox with this tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rules\"><span id=\"rules\">Rules<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You can instruct Gmail to automatically organize your emails by filtering them based on sender, recipient, subject, content, and more using rules. Determine the criteria and actions for Gmail, like labeling or setting priority. Organizing each email upon arrival in your inbox is ensured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-choose-your-inbox-layout\"><span id=\"2-choose-your-inbox-layout\">#2. Choose your inbox layout<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Google provides various inbox layouts for managing email listings. Select the layout that best suits your email needs, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Default<strong>:<\/strong> This layout organizes your email into tabs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Important first<strong>:<\/strong> In this layout, Gmail prioritizes which emails are most important to you and displays them first.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unread first<strong>:<\/strong> This layout displays your unread emails first, moving read ones to the bottom of your inbox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Starred first<strong>:<\/strong> This layout displays any emails you have marked with a star first.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Priority<strong>:<\/strong> Gmail estimates which emails you are most likely to respond to first and puts them at the top of your inbox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiple inboxes<strong>:<\/strong> This layout allows you to set up search criteria to create a section and the number of emails you want to view in each section. This layout contains no reading pane.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-remove-unused-tabs\"><span id=\"3-remove-unused-tabs\">#3. Remove unused tabs<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove all tabs except the &#8220;Primary&#8221; tab to create more space. If you don&#8217;t usually receive emails promoting items, you can turn off the \u201cPromotions\u201d tab, for instance. Remove tabs you never use with these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click on the gear-shaped icon at the top of your inbox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open \u201cSettings\u201d and click on the \u201cInbox\u201d tab.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under \u201cCategories,\u201d select the tabs you want to remove or include.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll to the bottom of the page and click \u201cSave Changes.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-use-labels-nbsp\"><span id=\"4-use-labels\">#4. Use Labels&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Organize your emails by color with labels. You can create labels that are up to 225 characters long and nest them like subfolders. When you delete a message, it is removed from all labels it&#8217;s attached to and your entire inbox. Create labels to quickly respond to important emails or mark emails to read later. Creating and saving new labels is a simple process. Here are the steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"923\" height=\"651\" src=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027.png\" alt=\"organizing your gmail inbox\" class=\"wp-image-172489\" style=\"width:410px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027.png 923w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027-768x542.png 768w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027-200x140.png 200w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027-380x268.png 380w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015027-800x564.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 923px) 100vw, 923px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the left side of your inbox, scroll down and click on \u201cMore.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"787\" height=\"632\" src=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015245.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-172491\" style=\"width:381px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015245.png 787w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015245-300x241.png 300w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015245-768x617.png 768w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015245-380x305.png 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 787px) 100vw, 787px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Click \u201cCreate New Label\u201d and add a label name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click \u201cCreate\u201d to make the label active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"714\" height=\"378\" src=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015559.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-172493\" style=\"width:484px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015559.png 714w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015559-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/businessyield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-29-015559-380x201.png 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 714px) 100vw, 714px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Scroll to the bottom of the page and click \u201cSave Changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-star-important-emails\"><span id=\"5-star-important-emails\">#5. Star important emails<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can flag important emails in Gmail by adding a star icon. It adds a &#8220;Importance Marker&#8221; (yellow arrow next to the star) to emails it deems important, but you can also manually add or remove stars. Manually adding or deleting stars improves the Gmail algorithm&#8217;s ability to detect and flag important messages. Adding stars to important emails is a simple way to keep track of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-archive-your-emails\"><span id=\"6-archive-your-emails\">#6. Archive your emails.<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Save emails by moving them to the \u201cArchive\u201d folder. After archiving, emails are removed from your inbox but remain in the &#8220;All Mail&#8221; tab until you choose to delete them. Even archived messages are still searchable. To avoid saving the email, simply move it to the &#8220;Trash&#8221; folder, where it will be permanently deleted after 30 days. Archiving your emails can be done by following these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Select one or more emails from your inbox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on the square box to highlight.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click \u201cArchive\u201d or \u201cDelete,\u201d represented by a file-like icon and a trash can, from the taskbar at the top of the inbox.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-enable-desktop-notifications\"><span id=\"7-enable-desktop-notifications\">#7. Enable desktop notifications<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Desktop notifications can alert you when an email arrives in your inbox, so you don&#8217;t need to constantly check your email. Instead, a notification pops up in the top right corner of your screen. Here&#8217;s how to set desktop notifications:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Click on the gear-shaped icon at the top of your inbox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on \u201cView All Settings\u201d and select \u201cGeneral.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down to \u201cDesktop Notifications\u201d and turn notifications on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the tone you want to hear when a new email arrives.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you get too many notifications, turn them on only for emails marked &#8220;important.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll to the bottom of the page and click \u201cSave Changes.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-mute-conversations\"><span id=\"8-mute-conversations\">#8. Mute conversations.<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you ever find yourself in an email conversation that you prefer not to participate in, you have the option to either leave or mute the thread.
