This month, October, is the 7th Annual National Cyber Security Awareness Month. It is to remind us that we need to focus on improving online safety and security awareness.
Some of the ways to do so is to:
regularly back-up files and data…
update software (operating systems, programs, drivers, etcetera)…
use anti-virus, firewall, anti-spyware, and anti-spam software…
and use connections that are secure (those that require passwords, and use passwords that are very strong).
