Someone got into my Gmail account, went on youtube and changed some names and thumbnails of videos around. I have already changed my password. But is there anything else I should do to protect myself from this happening again?

2 factor auth, change your pw on other accounts if they share a pw with your old gmail account. those 2 things will prolly prevent bad things from happening

If you have anything important linked to that gmail account then contact whatever companies you need too, credit card, bank, etc.

1. Get a password bank (I personally use LastPass)
2. Go to a password generator and get a 10 random uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols password
3. Save password in password bank

I do this for pretty much everything I care about, if I don't know my password how can the thieves
