Moving in sept! Phone, computer, cybersecurity?

I’m moving to Japan in just over a month. Working through the last few details.

My husband and I both have iPhones that have “no sim restrictions” – we also have physical sim ports. Any recommendations physical vs eSIM? Also to have a Japanese number- Is there something like a Skype number we could use for that at first?

We are moving permanently and I don’t have any plans to return home (to the US) barring an emergency. I was reading up that I need to open up my social security account from here and purchase a security key for my computer- otherwise it’s a pain to do from abroad. My technological knowledge level is akin to that of a potato… some banking also requires this- anyone use one? Any recommendations on brands?

Anything I’m missing on the phone/computer front? We are planning to bring our desktop (just the tower) but will have it backed up as well. Our laptop is aging out, planning to buy one there. We will back it all up and are leaving hard copies of tax docs with a friend here.
