It consists of acceptable norms and rules to ensure secure communication over the Internet. These rules help to get aware of cyber threats associated with the Internet and prevent wrongdoings. The Do's of Internet Security 1.Use of HTTPS sites While surfing for banking and shopping websites or paying the bills online, check whether the website's URL begins with 'HTTPS.' Also, check for the padlock icon, which indicates a secure connection between the website and the server. 2.Use of strong password Always use unique and hard-to-guess passwords. Create a password with special characters, symbols, numbers, uppercase, and lowercase letters. Do not use the same passwords for all online accounts. 3.Must Logout of accounts Logging into an online account creates a session with you and your website. If this session remains active, it might allow attackers to exploit your session, leading to a session hijacking. Ensure you log out of all your online accounts when you are done, especially when using a public computer. www.infosectrain.com | sales@infosectrain.com

Never use the links in your email or text message, which can lead to malware attacks. 6.Secure Backup regularly Take regular backup of all your essential files. Having backup files on a hard drive or using trusted cloud-based backup services is necessary, and it helps to recover the data quickly. The Don'ts of Internet Security 1.Never enable 'Keep me logged In' and 'Remember me' checkboxes Avoid enabling 'Keep me logged in' or 'Remember me' checkboxes on public computers.

5. 3.Never use free and public Internet sources Avoid using free, unsecured Wi-Fi, especially for shopping or banking on the Internet. Do not log into your social media profiles, as it can reveal your account credentials, and the attacker can hack your social media profile. 4.Do not share your confidential information. Never share your personal/bank details over a phone, email, or SMS, even if the caller/sender seems genuine, and it can lead to a Vishing attack. Personal Identifiable Information (PII), such as an Aadhar card number or SSN, is a unique number that connects with all your Bank, Health, and other services. If it is required to share your Aadhaar card details or SSN details, share the masked Aadhaar number or SSN to avoid cyber attacks. 5.Do not use unsecured websites.
