As computers and computer software have become more sophisticated, so too have computer viruses, worms and spyware. Despite improvements in anti-virus and anti-malware software, identity theft and hackers pose a greater threat than ever.
Unless your computer and network security are completely up-to-date, security compromises are highly likely. This is especially true when several members of the same household are using social networking sites.
However, some security problems may be no-one’s fault. For example, a hacked computer from one of your children’s friends or from a business associate may provide a portal to your email addresses, credit card numbers or other disturbing pieces of information such as addresses and family photos. It is wise to periodically make sure your computer is clean from these threats.
In addition, people sometimes feel that an out-of-date anti-virus or anti-malware program is just fine because their software has not shown anything to be wrong. They fail to realize that as viruses, worms or other types of malware have been developed that may be beyond the capability of an outdated program to recognize them.
A security lapse, even for a few days or even a few hours, is more than enough to compromise your computer’s defenses. A security lapse may potentially affect the entire network.
