This data includes almost all sensitive and private data like - online banking information, medical or financial information, even our private photographs. In the last few years, cyber threats have become very common due to the rise in internet usage and online services. Therefore, companies, especially those in sensitive data processing like banks, financial institutions, education institutions, and the medical sector, express their demand for cybersecurity solutions. However, as it is said, precaution is better than cure; you can follow basic solutions to protect your organisation from cyber-attacks.

  4. Spyware How to Protect from Spyware? Spyware Protect your systems, network and application from unwarranted invasion. Do not allow permission to websites to track data. Install Firewalls as a precautionary measure. If adware invades your system or application, it is not only harmful for your system/application but can also track your passwords, addresses, names, and other confidential information. Ensure your firewall is activated and you have screening software or anti-virus software installed and activated to block adware and other malicious activities. Spyware, also known as adware, is software that tracks a user’s browsing history. Their purpose is to invade privacy. These are visible as ads in sidebars on browsers or targeted ads.

  5. Malware How to Protect from Phishing? You can download safety and security software available on the internet through verified sources. These can be used in all types of systems. Many email service providers include virus scan and spam detection within their servers. It allows avoiding malware infections easily. Avoid opening emails from unknown or unverified sources. Links that you receive via email usually carry malware to infect your system or data. Refresh and back up your computer frequently to ensure everything is up to date. If the device is not updated, it is likely the anti-virus software too is not updated either, making you vulnerable to infections. Malware is a pervasive cyber security threat affecting millions of internet users across the world. It may attack from numerous sources like - pop-ups on web pages, spam emails, and downloads from unknown sources. According to the State of Cybersecurity, up to 36% of small to medium-sized businesses face malware attacks.

Usually, you are made to click on links that try to gain access to your personal information. Through these links, users are redirected to open their bank account credentials on their bank site, or social media login details and information is hacked. It can leak information such as passwords, bank details, credit cards numbers, and house addresses. Sensitive information can be kept safe from phishing if users avoid opening links from people they do not know.
