Home computers remain a favorite target for cybercriminals and other online threats. As newer threats like phishing and identity theft dominate the Internet security conversation, it’s easy to become lax about virus protection. However, viruses, worms, and Trojan horses haven’t gone away. In fact, they’re only becoming more dangerous. It’s critical to protect your home computer with a complete security solution. It’s also important to update your security software often and to stay informed about the latest threats.
Your identity, finances, and privacy are at risk – especially when dealing with online banks and merchants.To protect your identity and finances from phishing and other scams, to combat malicious code, use top quality antivirus, personal firewall, antispam, and antispyware solutions, and keep them up to date at all times. The average home computer user encounters dangerous spam on a regular basis.To protect yourself, don’t open email attachments from people you don’t know or that you didn’t expect to receive. Use a good spam filter, a strong personal firewall, and an antivirus solution that is able to scan email and IM attachments.You may be fooled into buying worthless security software, or worse. In a typical scam, an online program that appears to be a security scanner will report that your computer is exposed to threats. It then tries to persuade you to buy software to address those threats. The threats, however, are nonexistent and the software offers little or no protection. In worst case scenarios, they not only leave you unprotected, but also plant malicious code or steal the credit card information you provided to buy the software.
To avoid these scams, keep your antivirus software up to date and only use security software from a vendor you trust.The next big threat may involve blogs, media file sharing, and social networking sites. Taking advantage of the interconnectivity of these technologies and the implicit trust built into their user communities, phishers and other cybercriminals launch new attacks from these platforms. So, as you use blogs, share files, and engage in online social networking, make sure you have the latest security software, and be suspicious of anyone asking you for sensitive personal information.With old threats getting more widespread and new ones appearing all the time, the security landscape has gotten more complex for home computer users. However, you can stay ahead of the cybercriminals with good tools, the latest information, and a vigilant mindset.
