The holiday season brings on new troubles for your online and data privacy. Ensure your surfing safety by following these steps to securing your information.

Email

Did you know that large email providers scan your emails to choose the ads they are going to target you with? That’s right, even your emails aren’t private! However, you can switch over to various secure email providers if you’d rather have this level of security.

When shopping online, use an alias to protect your identity. This will secure your email address, is easily disposable, and can be organized with ease!

Browse Securely

The data you input while online and using browser software is subjected to the possibility of being collected. Hackers use browsers to steal your information, so it is important to have a secure browser, but how? Use a browser that is known to be secure, such as Firefox or Brave,  never have your browser safe your email and password, and use browser security enhancing add-ons that are trusted.

Private Networks

Network security is perhaps the most important. Don’t tap into Wi-Fi networks that are not secure. Your data can be accessible to anyone on or sharing the same network.

We hope that these tips will assist you in securing yourself and your data online this holiday season. Keep in mind, that if you have a business in the Lowcountry area and are in need of services, NetCertPro is here to help.

Network security refers to the policies put into place that help to monitor network security and network security access points around the world. The largest factors to Network Security are the prevention of unauthorized access, modification, or misuse of a computer network and the information on that said network.

Unauthorized Access
We must protect our computers and the data on them, just as we would our homes or businesses. We prevent and combat unauthorized access to networks by installing Firewalls and Antivirus software. Another aspect of preventing Unauthorized Access is the creation and use of a detailed password that consists of numbers, letters, (both lowercase and uppercase), and symbols. The most important, however, is the continued use of a Computer Network Security Management service like NetCertPro.

Modification
If you business has transactions located on your computer systems, that information can be modified by hackers. Hackers can modify any information on a network, from the account number to the transaction amount, nothing is safe if left unprotected. To combat this, we can use a various process of encryption techniques to prevent or hinder the access to such information.

Misuse
Any information can be misused. In this case, the information theft can cause the misuse of the data. When data is misused, it could be information of your client's being sold by hackers to try to target their individual data on other networks.
​
Network Security is important for business and individuals to have protection on their computers and devices. If you run a business and are interested in learning more, please feel free to contact us at NetCertPro by calling 843-606-6255
