Administrators, use standard accounts - Protect

If you are an Administrator, or the delegated expert in the home, get used to using two accounts:
- a Standard / normal account which you use most of the time
- an Administrator account when required for maintenance

When using the standard account, if administrator privilege is required for a task, sign in prompts will appear to enter the admin account details to allow access.
As much as possible, reduce sign in  as the Administrator at a computer / device.

Using these guidelines will assist to minimize opportunities of unwanted access to your computers and devices.
