The global accessibility of the internet has rapidly increased internet frauds and cybercrime all over the world. In the age of the internet, you have access to anything at your fingertips, but you can lose everything in a flash. Here are some tips for internet safety. Make sure you also know what not to do online.
Track your information
Social media platforms should not be used to disclose everything about your personal life. Moreover, you should keep track of the information you share with employers and customers.
Remove cookies
Cookies can be deleted from your browsing history if you browse websites that look unsafe. Make it a point to clear your cookies every now and then. Make sure you browse safe websites as well.
Safely connect
Public WiFis have no control over security. Avoid connecting to public WiFi networks since they allow hackers easy access to your device. Be sure to connect to a secure network whenever you are conducting a financial transaction.
Never save passwords
Don’t save passwords, especially banking passwords and CVV numbers, regardless of whether you are connected to a secure network. Furthermore, choose strong passwords that are difficult to hack.
