If you use Chrome as a web browser, do the following:
- go to chrome://flags/#enable-site-per-process
- enable "strict site isolation"
- restart your browser when prompted

If you use Windows, make sure you have the security patch installed.
Specifically, the patch is Security Update for Windows (KB4056892)

If you use a Mac or an iPhone, make sure you're at version 11.2 of IOS or later.

For Android phones, if you don't have a Google phone, you'll have to wait for your service provider to push out a patch.
