Internet Security – A Solution Named After The Issue
Internet Security is both an issue and a solution named and referred with the same words. It’s an issue when internet users who use the facility for several types of jobs, like website surfing, online banking, ecurrency transfers, internet marketing, chatting, blogging and much more; face the threat of getting their sensitive information leaked out, or their machine hijacked by an online script or person. This type of activity often referred to as virus or malware attacks and hacking, takes away the mental peace and sleep of internet users.
How Malicious Programs and Hackers work:
>>> A script or a robot gains access to your PC via any website or webpage you have entered.
>>> Sometimes sensitive information you enter inunauthentic webpages are carried to hackers, who are people who steal info from your machine, and gains remote control over your machine without your knowledge.
>>> Different types of downloaded files or exe files may be corrupt containing viruses, spywares or malwares, which all are intended to use your web history and surfing pattern info, and your other sensitive info; and these scripts send those info to the hackers or robot to a remote location, to attack your PC with bombardment of unwanted advertisements.
All these things pose threat to your security and make your PC vulnerable to attacks and virtually abuse you and your important data. This is what internet users refer to as Internet Security problem.
How Internet Security Programs work:
To avoid this issue, the solution is also named Internet Security. These are actually programs; some free and some paid, which are used by internet users. These programs need to be installed in PCs to protect the PC from all internet security threats. These programs work by:
>>> Building a firewall in your PC, so that malicious scripts cannot run in your PC, and such programs may never change anything in your registry.
>>> Alerting you through pop-ups to let you know, if any vulnerability is trying to download any file to your PC, or if any webpage you are trying to view is running any malicious script.
>>> Providing real time protection that constantly runs small scans through your PC to ensure that there is no unwanted program running in it.
>>> Cleaning your PC periodically of temp files, cookies, erroneous registry values and more unwanted files and scripts, which slows down and lags performance of your PC.
>>> Using VPN Service.With VPN Service,you can connect to VPN server to anonymously encrypt your internet activity from prying eyes.That can protect your online identity.
This is how Internet security is taken care of by such programs. While you get many such programs for free, that can be easily downloaded from trusted websites; there are many programs offering even more facilities and are thus paid ones.
