Safety from online resources

The Internet makes it possible to access information quickly,


communicate around the world, and much more. Unfortunately, the
Internet is also home to certain risks, such as malware, spam,
and phishing. So how do we use safe online resources?

First, let's learn what is online safety?


In simple terms, online safety refers to the act of staying safe online.
individuals are protecting themselves and others from online harms and
risks which may jeopardise their personal information, avoiding harmful
or illegal content. These can  lead to unsafe communications or even
effect their mental health and wellbeing.

So, are there any safe protection software from online malicious
sources?
We would like to introduce some software and applications that can do
that function:
1. Kaspersky Internet Security antivirus software
2. Microsoft Security Essentials App
3. AVG Internet Security software
4. Avast Internet Security software
But even with these software, is it 100% safe or not? Of course, the
answer is no, because some people's internet habits today
accidentally leak information. Such as:
1. You think "I don't post anything important on Facebook,
apps... so no one can steal it"?
Wrong, the Internet's deeply connected environment can help
anonymous hackers attack any online user. Information you can lose
such as name, phone number, email, account login in series of
applications, virtual credit card number ...Hackers can also use your
account to spam, post false status, even scam other users.
2. Put your resume online
Nowadays, more and more people are putting their resumes online to
find jobs, some companies ask for specific details of themselves,
especially home address and identity card number. This creates an
opportunity for scammers to steal information.
3. Post pictures of your kids on facebook, instagram...
Some parents put pictures of their children on the page to share
with friends, including the baby's name, school name, boarding
area... this can expose children to dangers and risks of being
kidnapped by crooks.
4. You click and download as soon as you see the attractive link?
Hackers often take advantage of the curiosity and gullibility of users to
send into emails or message boxes very attractive links in various forms.
For example, "Congratulations A, you just won, get the prize at the
following link”… These "guide" tricks are always fresh and up to date.
So the rule is if you don't know, don't ever click on the link.
Additionally, malware can be disguised as an application: anything from
a popular game to something that checks traffic or the weather. Don't
download apps that look suspicious or come from a website you don't
trust.

We also recommend official websites that can give us confidence in


finding resources online:
