It feels as though this is a constantly moving/evolving target. Where I once thought we were in decent shape, I'm now wondering if there are more things we could be doing to lock things down.
The closest I could find is this thread: viewtopic.php?t=438567
It got me to wondering if there was anything equivalent to the Bogleheads "Prioritizing Investments" wiki, but with a online security focus to guide someone towards which security centric items to address first and then go down a list.
Any recommendations for security centric list? If not, would that be a topic to include within the scope of the Bogleheads wiki? Not directly investment/finance related, but seems it would be beneficial.

Re: Req: Prioritization of consumer online security best practices
There's some good information in that post, and if you are doing most of it then you likely have most things covered. But think about the gaps and blind spots. You may be very careful about following links but maybe your spouse is not, or your kids are running a rogue server out of the basement that you don't know about, nephew is addicted to drugs and decides to steal from you, or Uber driver thinks you short tipped him and comes back to collect what he feels is owed. Of course those examples are exaggerated for effect, but illustrate what I mean by "blind spots".
If you lock yourself out of your house, who has a key? Is there a key under a rock, with a neighbor, with a family member 2 hours away? Or do you break a window and crawl through? There's a lot of advice now for an "emergency sheet" to document the complex web of security people are now taking with password managers, Yubikeys, and one time access codes. Part of your plan has to be keeping access if something goes wrong. Of course writing down an "emergency sheet" now means you have to store it somewhere you can get access to it and preventing it from falling into the wrong hands.
