2. Check whether your passwords have been stolen in past data breaches.
There are websites that comb through data breach logs to check whether your email address and password have been stolen in a past data breach — one example is the website Have I Been Pwned. If your password has been stolen, change it immediately.
3. Ensure that Ring devices on the outside of your house are securely attached.
Preventing against hacks is one thing, but malicious actors could also steal physical Ring devices and use those to gain access to your network and security footage.
4. Do not share Ring footage on any social networks, including Amazon's Neighbors social network.
According to NordVPN, sharing videos on social media could pose a threat to your security.
5. Regularly delete your Ring security footage.
In case of a breach, deleting old footage gives hackers less access to information about you and your home.
6. Change your passwords regularly, and practice good security hygiene.
Here are some easy steps to make sure your passwords aren't "low-hanging fruit" for hackers.
7. Make sure your Ring software is up-to-date.
Amazon has said it will issue more security updates going forward and urges all users to regularly update their software.
