• Protecting Yourself from Cyberattack

In this day and age, Cyberattacks can come at you from all different directions. It's no longer adequate to install Antivirus software and use a router to access the internet and expect to be adequately protected. Even with a FireWall you may be vulnerable to hacking of your sensitive personal data, the integrity of your Operating System, your Applications/Programs, and Hardware.

All Antivirus software are only as good as the updates they offer you. If you have not updated your Antivirus software for a few weeks, it may have become vulnerable to the latest Trojan Virus circulating the Net. These viruses are designed to seek out all subscribers of that particular Antivirus software, looking for those computers that do not have the latest updates. There are even viruses that will run an "uninstall program" to uninstall your Antivirus software!

And if you're using a " ' free' Antivirus program", do not count on it to provide you protection from the most current viruses circulating in cyberspace. It is precisely these programs that are targeted first by the Hackers.

If you do nothing else, DO NOT click on ANY "notification" of "suspected virus attack" or "virus infection" that shows up on your screen while surfing the Intenet. These notifications, along with the many companies that you see advertising to speed up your computer or scan your Hard Drive for virus infections, are actually a source of virus attacks and infections.

Today the security of your sensitive personal information and data, and the integrity of your Hard Drive and computer components depends on more than standard protection capabilities in use only a year or so ago.

I can expand your Microsoft Windows™ PC's definitions of security threats to your Operating System, personal data, and Hardware. The preset default settings installed at the time of manufacture are years old and will not protect you today. Because cyber security is such an important part of my business, I constantly strive to stay up-to-date so I can tell you which Antivirus software on the market today will do the best job for you.

If purchasing Antivirus software is not in your budget at this time, I will gladly recommend the best free Antivirus programs currently available. Because these free programs will not protect you from the most virulent virsues, I can also suggest additional security steps you can take to provide additional protection.

Purchasing Antivirus Programs with Daily Updates

There are a few really good AntiVirus programs available today and I am most happy to assist you in selecting the best one for your Internet use and budget, and install it onto your computer's Hard Drive. However, please realize that NO PROGRAM is 100% foolproof all the time. Even the most expensive programs which update frequently (daily, weekly, monthly) are not foolproof. It is still possible to "catch" something from the Internet, as those who write these virus programs get their greatest thrill in "beating" the Antivirus Software programmers. If they can collect someone's sensitve, personal data in the process that is their bonus. It is disheartening I know...

If you would like to purchase an AntiVirus Program that has frequency updates, I am most happy to give you my recommendations. I can tell you which is best rated, which is the most current technology, which is the most accurate, and which is the easiest to use. Just give me a call, I am most happy to help you protect yourself, and your equipment any way I can.

If you do not have any Antivirus program installed on your computer, please give me a call ASAP!
