1. Protect with passwords.

This may seem like a simple task, but you must know that many cyber attacks is successful because of weak password.

Access to all equipment, wireless networks and sensitive data should be guarded with unique user names and passwords keyed to specific individuals.

The strongest passwords contain numbers, letters and symbols, and aren’t based on common words, standard dictionary terms or easy-to-guess dates such as birthdays.

2. Install antivirus in your system

Use a virus scanner, and keep all software up-to-date. Whether if you are working at home or on an office network, it pays to install basic virus scanning capability on your PC. Many network providers now offer such applications for free.

Keeping software of all types up to date is also imperative, including scheduling regular downloads of security updates, which help guard against new viruses and variations of old threats.
