Top 10 computer security tips
The matter we gonna discuss today is security of your computer and your
valuable data therein. Having only an antivirus for security and
protection of your valuable data is not enough. You must perform some
additional task for your security and protection. So the same i'm
listing here the top 10 computer security tips
So here we go :
1. Use "anti-virus software" and keep it up to date.[ I recommend a licenced one which is far much better than a free one.]
2. Don't open e-mails or attachments from unknown sources. Be
suspicious of any unexpected e-mail attachments even if it appears to be
from someone you know.
3. Protect your computer from Internet intruders - use "firewalls."
4. Regularly download security updates and "patches" for
operating systems and other software.
5. Use hard-to-guess passwords. Mix upper case, lower case,
numbers, or other characters not easy to find in a dictionary, and make
sure they are at least eight characters long. You can refer this post
for better password.
6. Back-up your computer data on disks or CDs regularly.
7. Don't share access to your computers with strangers. Learn
about file sharing risks.
8. Disconnect from the Internet when not in use.
9. Check your security on a regular basis. When you change your clocks
for daylight-savings time, reevaluate your computer security.
10. Make sure your family members and/or your employees
know what to do if your computer becomes infected.
