There are hackers and scams everywhere; it’s hard to tell what and who you can trust. These threats usually come in three forms:
1: Ransomware
Hackers get into your computer and encrypts all of your data and holds it for ransom.
2: Phishing
These are usually emails or phone calls.
3: Data Breaches
As we have seen with Equifax, this is when your information becomes compromised.
Tips to protect yourself from hackers:
Have a strong password
Only open attachments that are from familiar sources
If you get a phone call from an unknown number, let it go to voicemail.
