Actually test restoring a backup, not just making one
Set your backup to run automatically — don't rely on remembering
Back up before the crash, not after
Follow the 3-2-1 backup rule, not just "a backup"
Keep a physical, offline list of what accounts exist — not just how to recover them
Keep a spare charger and cable you've actually tested
Keep a working spare device, not just a backup of your data
Keep at least one backup that isn't always connected — ransomware can't encrypt what it can't reach
Know how you'd do banking or 2FA from a borrowed device
Write down your recovery keys somewhere that isn't the device itself
