Okay so in this section we the going to focus on how we can protect ourselves from hackers.
There are a lot of ways in which you can protect or make sure that your online presence is safe.
Let's start with protecting yourself.
So how to protect ourselves.
The first thing you need to do is you need to make sure that whenever you are using a public Wi-Fi you
don't have access on any website that is sensitive.
For example the website that contains your financial data or something like that you don't access your
bitcoins anything that it's sensitive never use it on over a public profile because public Wi-Fi is
very unsecure and hackers can easily bypass it using people for DNS spoofing or something like that.
So never use a public Wi-Fi for your sensitive communication.
You can use it for maybe beer purposes but then again focus on if you must do it make sure that you
use some kind of encryption methods for example a VPN that encrypts all your traffic over this network
second thing you need to do is never give access permissions to something that doesn't needed so if
software website or app requires permissions that are not very reasonable.
You should never allow it.
Most of the time they ask for permissions and whenever For example if you're installing an app on your
phone or something like that it will show us an option for you to select which permissions it is always
viewed this permission.
For example a text messaging app should not access your.
For example dubious application of something like that so always choose apps that are that comes from
trusted sources.
For example in two apps that choose apps that are developed by companies that have a certain reputation
and always do to use because a lot of time for example if you are downloading an app from Play Store
or something like that most of the time if they have something suspicious the data will be reviews about
it.
Updates always keep your systems updated.
Windows Linux or mobile phone whatever you are using there will always be a bit so reliable.
If there is a need go to flood that is discovered by their team.
So most of the time they tried to do is whenever they find out that there is a certain word and ability
or some flaw that can potentially be exploited by hackers.
They immediately developed a patch for you.
So keep your systems updated and by doing so you can make sure that you have not gotten there but do
security flaws.
Strong passwords always use strong passwords don't use bots sort of like for example one two three or
ABC or something like that.
These passwords guest in minutes and they can always.
They can destroy your system immediately.
So make sure that rich whenever you are creating a password it's unique and never use the same password
twice and also nowadays storing passwords in browser.
For example Chrome or Firefox if you must always use some kind of password manager for example.
I use big Warden which is an open source does all the processing on its local machine.
So there is limited applications on the server side.
So and it also encrypts on the traffic attachments never click on any link that is coming from a suspicious
source even if it's coming from a valid source.
Make sure that it does not have any suspicious activity behind it.
For example if Facebook asks you for for example they have a security breach of something and click
this link to reset your password or something like that.
Most of the time this is phishing attack.
And if there is there is a genuine problem.
These companies will always be public.
What did so never click on any suspicious link to an example if your organization has some people and
then they send you an e-mail that do it.
Please check this file or something like that.
Most of the time it will be a phishing or take never show your boss or did anyone even.
For example if you create a of cloud dust one application still don't share it because you may sometimes
use it again unconsciously and this can mean that the previous person has your password encryption others
use encryption do storage sensitive information for example if you have a file that contains you at
a financial data or something like that.
Always use encryption of some kind of password protection method on that.
And don't leave your files as it is on your own disk.
Even if you know that nobody's going to use your computer there are still ways that people can access
your system and generate a back button into your system so always make sure that your sensitive files
are encrypted even on your local machine.
And if you want to upload your data onto the cloud for example your pictures images something like that.
Make sure that for example if you upload your files on Google Drive make sure that your data is encrypted
and don't let it stand that I unencrypted.
Even though these companies are large scared and worse still something can happen and your data can
get leaked so always use encryption before uploading your files on that log.
And deleted files.
Most of the time what people do is that they plug in the USP and delete something and think that this
has been deleted entirely.
This is not the case.
What happens is that even if you delete the file unless you or what I did this data will still be present
and it can be recovered using different softwares for example.
There are a lot of hard disk E.coli software offers that can you do your data if it's not already an
so just deleting doesn't mean that your files have been deleted.
I always try to override this data at least privilege.
I always run programs on lease privilege don't give permissions or access or privileges that the devices
don't need.
For example there is no need to run a PDA file with privileges so make sure that you don't give extremely
religious authorization to pull ones that don't needed and always use the Europeans in order to protect
your identity.
And if the VPN provides an encryption by encrypted communication this is the best way to go.
So these are some of the ways in which you can keep yourself or protect yourself while you have your
present online.
So thank you for this scores and see you again.
