Social networking and expressing your own views on blogs should be a pleasant experience however there are many issues associated with computers and IT today. As a majority of people with access to internet use social network such as Facebook and Twitter, the dangers of hackers and security increase. There are ways to prevent people from hacking your personal account details by putting vague information so that hackers are not tempted and if any information is breached, it will not be personal information that could lead to concerns of the person’s safety.
Email-Furthermore, when completing forms ensure that you do not put personal information and if a pop-up appears, do not type in your email address because many of these sites send spam to the people that do type in their emails.
Passwords-When browsing the internet, everyone should be aware of the risks of giving out information and passwords to sites. These sites can log into the profile that you provide and view personal information such as pin numbers and card details which is not a good experience if all your money from your bank account disappears.
Phone numbers and house addresses-many websites will require phone numbers and house addresses to send products if bought online, but unless the website is official, then never give out this information as it can lead to spamming and many unknown people will know where you live.
To ensure that you have complete safety when using the internet, do not post information that could harm you and take away your money. A good way to protect you is to buy internet protection that stops viruses and protects personal information. :)
