We at #PortfolioDay are encouraging you to run your work through Glaze before uploading anywhere online to help prevent your work from being used in datasets without your consent. To find out more, please visit the Glaze Project.
Some other precautions to consider:
Only upload web-sized images to the internet.
Watermark everything.
Consider cropping images that you share to social media and only displaying full versions somewhere you control.
Keep your portfolio behind a password or paywall.
