Beyond Knowing How to Use Steemit, Facebook and the Internet, Be Careful!
Despite the social media and the Internet being a nice tool for the exchange of information and data. Being security conscious when you are using them is one thing we can't take for granted.
Links are littered everywhere begging for your clicks.
Websites are everywhere asking for your data.
Hackers are ever ready trying to steal your data.
So, knowing what to click on and what not to click is the starting point of our online security.
Did you know that websites with http://... Domain is not secure and is prone to expose your data to hackers online and that visiting a website with https://.... Domain is more secure?
Always consider this as you visit any website link .
Did you know that a mistake on one alphabet of a website address can direct you to a wrong website? Crosscheck the website address you entered before you login with your data.
Did you also know that it is very risky to connect and browse with every unsecured WiFi you see? This can expose your data to hackers.
So learn to use secured WiFi while in a hotel or public places.
Remember, sometimes free things do purge.
Did you know that some of the OMG fun play you do on Facebook can help hackers steal your data, like the ones that predict the type of cars or house you will have in the future?
Did you also know that it is risky to use the same password across several websites? This is because cracking one is as good as getting all.
Be careful about the forms you fill online!
Protect your information as much as you can!!
Remember...
This era of Internet and mobile banking has made being careless about how you handle your online security a big risk.
Blessings!
