Security Toolkit

Even if you’re not working with us directly, these are some tools we think everyone should consider.

Cybersecurity doesn’t have to be complicated—or expensive. Whether you’re protecting your home network, a small business, or just trying to avoid the next data breach headline, a few smart tools can make a big difference.

This isn’t a sponsored roundup. These are tools we recommend because we actually trust them. Some of the links below are affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission if you decide to make a purchase—at no extra cost to you. We only include products we’ve reviewed, vetted, or personally use.

Start with one or two of these. Even small steps add up to stronger protection.

Why Smart SMBs Use a YubiKey

Let’s be real, passwords alone just aren’t enough anymore.
Between phishing attacks, credential stuffing, and that one employee still using “Welcome123!”, your business is more vulnerable than you think. That’s where the YubiKey comes in.

What Is It?

A YubiKey is a small hardware security key that plugs into your computer or connects wirelessly (depending on the model). You use it as a second layer of protection—right alongside your password—to log into critical accounts like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, LastPass, VPNs, and more.

It’s like giving your business a digital seatbelt—you may not notice it every day, but when it matters, it saves you from a crash.
