Internet Security:Why should you care?

Every day, organised cyber criminals are stealing confidential personal information and proprietary business information from homes and businesses across the UK — not by breaking down windows and doors, but by remotely breaking into internet connected laptops, personal computers, and other wireless devices.

Anti-Virus Software protection: Anti-virus software protects your computer from viruses that can destroy your data, slow your computer's performance, allow malicious attackers to remotely control your computer, or even allow spammers to hijack your email account and send emails using your email address. Anti-virus software works by scanning the files on your computer and incoming email for viruses, and then deleting them or putting them under quarantine. Anti-virus software protects your computer against the newest threats only if it is kept up-to-date

Firewalls: A firewall,when setup properly, helps keep hackers and other malicious attackers from using your computer to send out your personal information without your permission or knowledge. While an anti-virus software program scans incoming email and files, a firewall is like a guard watching for outside attempts to access your system and blocking communications to and from sources you don't permit whilst your computer is connected to the internet. Keeping the firewall software up-to-date is critical for your internet security
