@WeldPond
Due to U.S. telco networks being compromised, today CISA is recommending:
1. Use only end-to-end encrypted communications
2. Enable Fast Identity Online (FIDO) phishing-resistant authentication
3. Migrate away from Short Message Service (SMS)-based MFA
4. Use a password manager to store all passwords
5. Set a Telco PIN
6. Regularly update software
7. Opt for the latest hardware version from your cell phone manufacturer
8. Do not use a personal virtual private network (VPN)
