International Computer Security Day -- November 30

[Corrine]

November 30 is internationally recognized as Computer Security Day.  Please use this occasion to take at least one action to improve the security on your computer.

Here are just a few suggestions on what you can you do:

-- Change your password(s) to strong passwords.  At minimum, mix upper case and lower case letters, numbers, and special symbols.  The longer the better! 

-- <*cough*> Remove the "sticky" from under your keyboard that has all your passwords written on it! 

-- Update your Anti-virus software and run a full system scan

-- Check for Windows updates

-- Delete unneeded files

-- Back up important files

-- Take a few minutes to read "So how did I get infected in the first place?" © Tony Klein. 

Then check out Mitch's "PROGRAMS and INFO for a NEWBIE or OLDIE V2.1".





Practice Safe Computing!

Good advices Corrine, :thumbsup:

and it's great that security issues gets the public attention with a special day, although it's an all year around thing for us "thruthful believers".
(He said while *looking for stickies under the keyboard* which, if found, of course must be left-overs from temporary guests.) :lol:

This is some good advise.  If people would take these actions more frequently, computer security would be much better.
