Are You Aware of These Popular and Common Internet Security Lies?
If you are an intelligent internet user, then you must beconcerned about your internet security. As so much have been told and written about cyber security, many users are getting confused about the real framework within which the Internet security system performs. There may be chances that you are following certain protocols in the name of security because those are just myths. That is you have fallen for wrong sense of web safety.
In that light, this blog debunks five very popular Internet security lies. There are many such myths that are believed to be true
Internet security
essentials. In general, those are just lies or false perception. Over breeding of false web safety notions is happening because of growing internet security issues all across the web. That has made people so conscious about web safety that they have started believing in almost every myth.
This blog debunks five such myths so that you learn to differentiate what is real and what is false.
The presence of illuminated lock icon confirms a site as secured
You might have seen the lock icon in the browser bar when you visit certain websites. Especially, the banking sites, social networks, e-commerce sites, etc. You must be aware that this illuminated lock icon in the browser bar is the symbol of safety, which means you are on a legitimate and secured website.
That is not completely false but not also completely true. This icon just symbolizes that the connection between your computer and the server is a secure one. But that doesn’t protect you from the malware. The truth is hackers can fake SSL certificate or can cheat you with some padlock icon. So, just the presence of the illuminated padlock icon doesn’t confirm that a website is all safe.
The internet security essentials are to avoid adult and gambling sites
Just like other web user, you are also sure to carry the notion that adult web sites or gambling web sites are dangerous as these are a hub of malware. That means you are at risk of downloading malware into your systems if you visit any adult site or gambling site. While it’s true that these are dangerous sites but these are not the only dangerous sites.
You might end up downloading malware even by visiting a reputed and legit shopping website. It is surprising but true that more that 83% of malware-hosting websites are the so called “Trusted” sites.
There is nothing valuable on my computer
Do you know why majority of the people fall prey of internet threats because they remain on guard? Now, why they remain off guard despite knowing about Internet security issues? That is because they believe there is nothing valuable in their computer. They consider that there is nothing on their computer that is worth of stealing or can hamper them even if gets stolen.
It might be possible that you don’t store your financial information or special contacts or your business documents in your computer. But at least you do access your email using the computer or access your social network sites. In the process to reach out your accounts, you type your passwords in the computer, right? So, stealing that password is enough for the hacker to access your sensitive details. So don’t think that you don’t have anything important in your computer. If you are using the Internet on a laptop or PC, then that device has a lot much important information about you.
Presence of antivirus software is enough to protect the device
When you buy a new system, your retailer tells you about the need of antivirus protection. So, you get it installed being in love with your new device. Then you think that your PC or laptop is all protected from viruses and malware. You can visit any site, click on any link and the AV program is there to restrict the malicious programs from infecting your device.
But this is not the real reality. Before you say “what is a virus” a new virus or malware gets discovered. So fast and spontaneous is the entry of new malware. Thus, it might happen that sometimes, you AV program fails to detect and restrict a particular virus. Thus, apart from using and updating the AV program installed in your system, also run web antimalware scans on a regular interval.
A strong password is just enough to protect my accounts from Internet threats
Yes, keeping strong passwords is very important. It is also true that “walnut14%(123)_dove” is much stronger password the “qwerty098.” That means you are smart and intelligent to create a very strong password. But, do you know your hacker? He is someone who is dedicating 24 hours a day and seven days a week just to break your password. His intelligence and dedication are much more than yours. Thus, he can crack even your highly strong password.
Hackers use keyloggers to monitor and snatch keypad activity. So, even if you keep everything encrypted, still by reading your keyboard movement, they can snatch what you are typing. Thus, it’s better to use the virtual keyboards, where keyboard movements can’t get recorded.
Conclusion
The bottom line is that there are various myths or misconceptions related to the Internet Security protocols. Debunking these myths is very important otherwise you will stick to wrong notions and think that you are safe, whereas in reality you are not safe. As the saying goes, it is better to know who is your enemy otherwise how will you protect yourself.
