We need to use some computer security techniques for both home and office to protect your computer from many threats. The top ten techniques among them are as follows:
Floppies: If you are still using floppies scan them before you use. When you have to use external floppy disks to shift files between PC’s using this technique is quiet critical. So, before you transfer any data from the floppy disk scan for removing many viruses and threats.
Always label your floppies: tag your disks clearly because without knowing many viruses, and threats, Trojan horses, worms will be transmitted. Try to use alternate methods to transfer files and never share your floppy disks with any other person.
Never boot the data from your floppy disks: Booting the data is one of the ways viruses can be transmitted. Before shutting down the system always make sure to remove your floppy or else it will automatically attempt to boot.
Avoid downloading the files which you are not sure about: Never download the files like games, screensavers, executable programs, freeware or any other social networking sites. Because a lot of internet files from the websites and news groups contain threats, worms, and Trojan horses. So, before you run the files always remember to scan them before you download. Download the files to the scan folder and then scan the entire folder.
Always update your system startups: Always make sure that the anti-virus software will automatically run on your system so that you will be always protected from many threats.
Regularly update your anti-virus software: Unless you update the anti-virus software regularly even the best one will not be helpful. New threats can slip into your system daily and even hourly. Anti-virus software allows easy online updating.
Always scan your inbox email attachments: It is always good to scan each attachment in the IM messages or email before you download them. This security software always performs this function automatically on your PC.
You should never open the email attachment automatically: It is very important that your email attachment does not automatically open from the emails or instant messages.
Always install updated anti-virus software in your system: always update all the virus definitions in your system. Good PC security applications and proper anti-virus software can scan the files for unusual changes and other warning signs. This is the most important step to be taken to keep your system safe and secure as possible.
Use common sense: When you find any email attachments in your mail id it is better to delete without opening them. Mainly you should not open the attachments with tempting animations or some of the social network sites. Some of the strange links and attachments in instant messaging will contain a malicious code.
By following the above simple techniques you can always protect your system from many threats. There are also many other techniques to be followed to keep your system secure.
