Day 27/60 🔐
Today, I explored how websites work behind the scenes, from sessions, and user authentication
Logging into a website involves more than entering a password, the application must also manage who you are and maintain your session.

Using an administrator account for daily tasks increases security risks because any malware or malicious script executed during routine activities (like web browsing or opening emails) automatically inherits full system administrative privileges.

Day 18/60 🔐
Today, I learned how routers move data between networks and how HTTP and DNS help devices communicate with applications. 🌐
What stood out to me was seeing how these different parts work together whenever I access something online.

I'm the type to update my apps only when someone tells me there's a new update. 😭😂
Learning that updates aren't just about new features; they also fix security vulnerabilities.
Time to start checking myself. 💚

Day 16/60 🔐
Today, I learned how IPv4 addresses identify devices and how subnetting divides networks into smaller segments. 🌐
An IP address tells you more than just where a device is, the subnet mask helps show which network it belongs to.

An IPv4 address is a logical identifier assigned to a device's network interface. It must be unique within a local network for local communication, and unique globally for internet communication.
Also learnt about unicast and multicast.

Today’s task was about 2FA and why it matters. I already have it enabled on my WhatsApp, but this reminded me to check the rest of my accounts too.
One extra layer of security can make a big difference.

For real, the trickery is brutal. Some even go to the extent of replicating the original with almost zero room for suspicion if you're not paying close attention.
