Adopt a Strong Password Policy This is one of the simplest things to do, and yet many neglects it: with each new registration on a website, you need to adopt solid password management. To do this, here are some good practices to keep in mind: Use a different password for each access: this is the first thing to do to limit the possible damage in the event of hacking.

When it comes to the advisability of antivirus protection, all users are divided into two camps. Some argue that they do not need any protection because they are extremely careful on the network and are guided by common sense, while others tend to believe that total security anti-virus protection is a necessity these days. The that antivirus is only needed for irresponsible Windows users is just a myth. In an era where zero-day vulnerabilities are discovered and sold to criminal groups at alarming rates, even the most cautious users are vulnerable. Common Sense is a Great Addition Many people mistakenly believe that they can only infect their computer with malware by downloading suspicious files, using outdated software, visiting questionable sites, or doing other potentially dangerous things, such as activating a Java plugin in their browser. This is fundamentally wrong. The most popular ways to distribute malicious applications are not the only ones. We have already mentioned zero-...

The first and most important thing that everyone should know: a real antivirus will never ask for money for virus treatment.  If he found them, he would cure them.  If the license has ended, it will simply either stop looking for viruses or stop downloading new updates, that is, it will stop protecting against NEW viruses, but will still find and treat old ones.  So if an “antivirus” asks for money to cure a virus, it is a fake antivirus.  It's simple.  There can be no other options. These fake antiviruses look very similar to real free antivirus and their messages are very intrusive and frightening.  Once every 5-10 minutes, they pop up, inform you that you are infected and urgently need to be cured, and for this to pay. Naturally, these viruses, which the fake antivirus scares, are not on the computer.  They simply select random non-infected files on the computer and say that they are infected with a virus, and they choose the name randomly from a l...

Antivirus developers like to say that without them you would simply be lost. Or at least your data would be gone. Some Windows users take the opposite point of view: Antivirus programs slow down system performance, annoy them with unnecessary warnings, and block completely harmless applications, while real malware can still sneak onto your computer. While antivirus software can be incredibly annoying, it provides the insurance you need. Without antivirus software, any network interactions could have infected your computer with malware. In short: without anti-virus protection, the use of the Internet would become impossible. The principle that currently existing antivirus programs use to protect users from malicious software (“malware” for short) is broadly the same. Anti-virus protection modules scan all files in real-time, that is, as soon as they get to the computer. The web protection module tries to prevent access to malicious sites. Finally, the antivirus scanner checks all local ...

It spies on you in secret, pumps your computer's resources, destroys your files, or bombards you with advertisements: the computer virus installs itself without your knowledge and sometimes lurks for years before being discovered ... However, certain signs can put you off flea in the ear. 1. Your Computer is Idling A computer that suddenly becomes particularly slow may have been infected with a virus.  But this is not sufficient proof.  “Today, many applications are very resource-intensive,”  says Thomas Roccia, IT security expert at McAfee.  Internet browsers or… antiviruses are therefore among the most consuming programs.  An overly full hard drive or an out of date system will also cause slowdowns. 2. Your Screen is Invaded By “pop-up” Windows When You Surf the Internet If you are bombarded with adware popping up on your screen (pop-up), you are probably the victim of  adware ,  adware  abusive.  “This type of malware is activated when you...

To browse the internet safely and to protect computer systems, antivirus software is an excellent ally. Even though it is rare today to find a business or freelance user that does not have anti-virus software, some may not yet understand its importance and use. This article provides you with practical information so you can get the most out of antivirus software to secure your computer systems. WHY INSTALL AN ANTIVIRUS? Antivirus is a program whose main purpose is to detect, neutralize or eradicate malware from infected computers and other computing devices. It also plays a preventative role by preventing viruses from infecting and harming computer systems. By way of illustration, a system without an antivirus is like a house with an open and unprotected door. This will definitely attract burglars and unwanted intruders. This is also the case with an unprotected computer: it can be infected with any type of malicious computer program. An antivirus will act like a closed door, with a se...
