Cybersecurity – What is it?
You must be very aware of the harm that could happen each and every time you access your computer.

Cybersecurity is a broad term that covers different things.
- Cyber Threats – Malware infections, phishing attacks, social engineering scams, ransomware are among the many ways Cyber attacks happen. Be very aware of clicking on links you do not recognize and never download something unless you can verify it is safe.
- Protect Yourself – Use of a good antivirus program or a firewall are great. However, you still need to educate yourself about all the many ways an attack can happen and not fall for the trap. Sometimes these traps are very subtle or may even resemble something you are familiar with already.
- Safety for Children – Set up parental controls on devices, hence preventing children from accessing things they shouldn’t see or have access to. These controls will help flag dangerous links and programs that could allow theft of your personal information.
- Securing Your Network – A firewall or even a VPN will help deter the basic hacker. Don’t be an east target, thereby allowing your information to be available to the world.
