Keep Your Computer Safe
These days, so much vital data is stored on computers that it’s essential to keep your computer secure so that you don’t lose personal and business information. Here are a few tips to keep you computer running well and free from viruses. First of all, it’s necessary to always have up-to-date virus software installed on your computer when you are using the Internet. This is the number one way to prevent viruses and other malware from entering your system and causing problems. Make sure your program scans all incoming documents, such as email attachments, and check for updates regularly.
Although the software can provide a critical line of defense, it’s also important that you keep vigilant about what is happening on your computer. Don’t open email attachments from senders you don’t know. Additionally, thieves sometimes pretend to be a trustworthy source in order to obtain sensitive information from you such as passwords or credit card details. For example, even if you bank online, your bank will never send you an email asking for personal information. If you receive an unusual email, do not give out the information and call your bank immediately. You should be aware that some free software has spyware and viruses embedded in it, so do not download software or other files from a source you do not trust.
Finally, when you are using your computer in public, pay attention to the people around you. Be discreet when typing your password or other sensitive information and do not share personal data over a public Wi-Fi connection.
Follow these steps and you’ll be on your way to a computer safe from harm. |
