Mentioning isn't enough, you need to explain how to use it safely and not go wrong side.
VPN
There are 2 type VPNs, paid and free VPN. Both free and paid are worked, but free VPN is bad for your privacy. Not all paid VPNs are good, the good one is NordVPN.
Password Manager
When you use Chrome, the password manager is from Google which is very bad privacy for you. Don't forget Google is spying your history and browser, so use other browser offer good privacy e.g. TOR, Mozilla and good password manager e.g. Keepass, Yubikey
Anti-virus software
Beware of installing unknown anti virus, many anti virus software are weight, uBlock is lighter.
Two-Factor Authentication app
2FA need to be installed on another device, many people installed 2FA in the same device. It's not 2FA anymore and you kill the purpose of 2FA, it's prevent from malware can't access your 2FA since you have separate device.
