The Internet is very necessary for everyone nowadays. Besides, the problem of hackers has increased on the Internet. Now many important tasks have to be done online. That’s why there are important guidelines to follow if you want to stay safe from scammers and hackers.
It is best to avoid public Wi-Fi for the internet when you are out of the house. Because not all public Wi-Fi networks have strong security measures.
It is better that you arrange mobile data before leaving home. Social media account IDs, passwords, and bank account information can get into the hands of hackers and scammers through poorly secured public Wi-Fi networks.
Emails from suspicious sources should be avoided. Because if you open that email attachment, scammers will get a lot of important information through a phishing attack.
Nowadays, the threat of phishing attacks on the Internet has increased. Download apps from Google Play Store if you are using an Android smartphone and their own store if you are using iPhone.
Downloading and using applications from third-party sources and unknown sites will be risky. Many times these applications are created by hackers.
Hackers and scammers can get the device’s valuable information through these applications. But any application downloaded from Google Play Store is quite safe to use because there is no possibility of harmful malware in these applications.
People need to create accounts in many places on the internet. OTT platforms, gaming platform subscriptions, social media sites, bank accounts, etc., are in our accounts.
Make sure that the passwords of all accounts are not the same. Because once hackers get the password, they will attack all your accounts. This will put you in danger.
