Tips on how to protect your computer from hackers/malware.

Hackers are everywhere these days and they are fast learners as well. They always find alternatives to get their job done. Why do people hack? They simply do to get your information without your knowledge. As they keep learning and finding other alternatives to get what they want, you also have to be on alert any day.
You don't need to be a "computer wizard" to protect your devices from these villainous hackers.
Some important ways to beat hackers.

1. Update your Operating System.
Outdated programs easily expose your personal files to hackers.

2. Before you sell your device, erase or destroy all traces of your personal data.

In this case, I'll recommend d-ban. "Crazy" hackers can find their way through but it'll be very difficult to recover your information.

3. Delete an unknown email.

Hackers can disseminate emails to people, whether they know you or not. You may mistakenly follow a link and that may be a phishing page. These phishing pages always request for your username and password. Phishing page is always similar to sites you've signed up.

4. Download up-to-date security programs.

Hackers gets confused when you keep practicing this. Invest more in security programs. Remember it's best to prepare than to repair.

5. Use two factor authentication.

These days, many online services allows you to enable two factor authentication. Meaning it gives you an option to type a code after you login with your password.

6. Never use an open WiFi.

It makes it so easy for hackers to find their way through. They get connected and download illegal files.Get an encrypted password for your WiFi. You are good to go.
