Take bit extra CARE

We might have read in so many news papers, books about computer dangerous things and habits. But, we read the news and leave there itself. We are not following the advises regularly. A famous organization, TREND micro, has made survey on Computer usage and its progress. Most of us giving importance to our convenience rather than security.

Here, I listed out some of the habits that need to be changed among ourselves.

  •  Giving more Personal information in Social and Public websites
Social Website - FacebookMost of the internet users, especially youngsters, giving information  more than enough about their personal information such as sensitive information, life and place where they are living. 

This habits will make internet thieve's  job easier. They can get your such personal information by using Malware programs.

Recently, an individual house was robbed by robber is a perfect example for this. The robber came to know all victim's activities and his house information through Facebook. It makes his much job easier to plan.

 So, be careful while updating your personal information in social and public networks.

  • Private corporates security
Computer Security
Most of the people will be working under some private companies. While using computer from company, we may think that our company has more security and will more information either personal or financial in websites. But, all the security things are not believable. We cannot make any decision on the companies security policies.

We should think about environment and its security before giving inputs to the websites.

  • Dangerous Web links
Malware Mail
Links provided in websites, mails always so dangerous. In particular, links to social websites are having dangerous malwares always in it. 

Clicking on this link redirect you to some dangerous links instead of redirecting to social websites. We should be very careful about link sent by websites. 

It is better type the links in the address bar always instead of clicking on the links.



  • Fail to Updating Software
Update software
In India, people are not hesitating to install antivirus program specially for security reasons.

 At the same time, once they installed, they don't care about it later. It leads to crash the computers in bad way. 

We should update it in regular intervals.



  • Downloading piracy software
In Asian countries, in particularly India and china, computer users are showing more interest to download freewares and cheap software. When downloading the freewares especially cracked versions, they send malwares along with the software. After started to use the programs, the malwares also will start to show his work.

  • Single password for ALL
Most of us use single password for all the websites since it will be very difficult to remember the passwords for each websites, if it is different. This is very bad habit. Due to this, it is very easy to hack all your accounts once one of your account is hacked. 

So, even if you are feel difficult, try to keep separate passwords for each websites.
