The many nightmares internet users are having concerning the security or safety of their computers and the need to find a solution to their problems gave rise to my desire to blog on the topic- PC Security, hence this article.
Why Do We Need To Secure Or Protect Our Computers?
“Every unprotected computer that is connected to the internet has got 20 minutes to live.”
If the computer remains connected there is every possibility of it being infected by hundreds of viruses, spyware, adware, Trojan horses and other threats.
This statement of fact has been accepted as true by IT security experts after several experiments that confirmed the statement. Various forms of computer security threats are available these days. The most alarming aspect of it is that most of these threats keep replicating and spreading fast to other computers in the network.This is where PC Security comes in. The fight against viruses has seen the emergence of various programs to tackle each type of threat.
These threats which themselves are man-made, are products of mischief makers and dubious personalities and are made to achieve one aim or another. Which ever way, you the internet user are at the receiving end and so you need to secure your PC. Your computer system, your identity, your passwords, your bank account and your personal security are all under threat. So the need to secure your PC can not be over emphasized.
The article seeks to inform readers of the existence of the blog site- http://1st-secure-your-pc.blogspot.com, a site which is also aimed at informing its visitors on the various PC security threats, what users should do to keep their computers safe as they browse the web, as well as various protections/remedies available in form of firewalls, anti virus, anti-spamware, and anti-adware tools as well as names that matter in the fight against computer threats.
Let me quickly remark here that though you may be PC security conscious and are running a very famous virus protection software and believe that your computer is ‘completely protected’ then you have made a very grievous mistake. This is because spyware and adware infections come in hundreds and in a continuous attack to undermine your computer security arrangements.
Some viruses are written with the main aim of damaging your computer by attacking your computer programs, removing your files or changing your computer settings. Some others may not necessarily damage computers but are meant to force you to know about their existence through unwanted texts, audio and video messages. This is another serious security issue as it normally results in these programs taking up your computer memory and disturbing the proper running of original programs which of course causes a lot of discomfort for you as you use the internet.
Security lapses give room to system crashes, and loss of data may also occur. Collection of personal information, interference with your computer control, redirecting your web browsing behavior, accessing web sites with more dangerous viruses, changing your computer settings, diverting advertising revenue to a third party, resultant slow connection speeds and installing additional softwares are all infringements to PC security caused by spyware.
These topics and more are fully covered by my blog on PC Security. For further details visit http://1st-secure-your-pc.blogspot.com. It generally talks about prevention and healing methods to all forms of computer threats when connected to the internet.
