Unfortunately, there are more and more people who experience being hacked, and this does not indicate that that number will fall in the future. Just as important it is for a company to get control of master data, just as important it is to protect its computer from hackers.

The main rule number one is to always make a backup of your computer so that you do not lose your data. To avoid being hacked, there are many easy ways to secure your computer, and we have collected them for you in this article.

Update your applications

On your computer, you probably have a sea of programs, and it is very important to pay attention to when an update has been released for them. Hackers keep an eye on whether there are security holes that they can exploit to get into your computer with. Therefore, always update your programs, operating systems and apps so that you do not get unnecessary guests to visit.

Avoid open wireless networks

Cafes, restaurants and shopping centers almost always offer an open network, and here you need to take care, if not protected. If it is not protected and you are connected to the network while surfing the web, the hackers can at the same time collect your data and including passwords. As a starting point, you can’t actually tell if the network is safe to go on, and it’s always a good idea to ask those who provide the network if they have protected it. Another good mnemonic rule is also to turn off your Network if you are not using it. That way, you make sure you don’t connect to a network without knowing it.

Download antivirus program

You’ve certainly heard it before, but an antivirus program is very important to have on your computer. The program tells you when there is a threat to your computer. There are a lot of versions, and this year a test has been made on selected popular antivirus programs, which shows which programs work best. A good rule of thumb is that the antivirus should contain spam filtering, antiphishing, antispyware and firewall.

Use good and different passwords

When it comes to passwords, we tend to have 3-4, which we constantly switch between. It’s really dangerous because if a hacker gets his hands on your password for your mail and which is also the same for your Facebook profile, there is a high chance that it will also be hacked. Therefore, be creative when creating passwords. Use both uppercase and lowercase letters as well as numbers, which make it harder for the hackers to figure out, and the longer it is, the better.

Beware of links

If you have received an email containing a link, please consider whether it is safe to click. Always check if the sender is reliable and make sure that the Mail does not seem unprofessional IE., are there spelling errors, formal uncertainties, etc., it is less credible and thus categorized as dangerous. If you receive an email that requires your personal data before you can access the website or file, you must be careful. Once you have entered your data, it has already landed with the hackers and they can now misuse your personal data.

Always use common sense

In general, when browsing the internet, remember to use common sense. Do you receive f.ex. an ad on which you can win a whole lot of money, or an email about a good deal on an expensive product, then it seems a little too good to be true. Therefore, be sure to always put on the critical glasses when you receive emails or see something that might just have a little suspicion about it.

With this guide you will easily be able to prevent hackers from getting hold of exactly your computer, how much of your information is on. As long as you are critical, it is not dangerous to be on the web.
