PRIVACY

In this digital age, privacy is a major issue of concern. We have all seen and heard the stories on the news or from friends about Hackers getting into people's accounts and reeking havoc. Either by attaching key strokes recognizing software to your computer, or logging into people's accounts to gain personal information. These hackers are becoming more and more aggressive in their pursuits. One way of protecting users is by educating them about sensible passwords to use, and ensuring that none of them are using the same password for all their accounts. Another way is by ensuring that the privacy standards on websites are read and that settings are altered to suit. There is no sure way to stop hackers from their pursuits, but there are important practices to ensure that you are not a victim.
