Computer
security is the process of preventing and detecting unauthorized use of your
computer. Prevention measures help you to stop unauthorized users (also known
as "hackers") from accessing any part of your computer system.
Detection helps you to
determine whether or not someone attempted to break into your system, if they
were successful, and what they may have done.
We use computers for
everything from banking and investing to shopping and communicating with others
through email or chat programs.
Although you may not consider your
communications "top secret," you probably do not want strangers reading your
email, using your computer to attack other systems, sending forged email from
your computer, or examining personal information stored on your computer (such
as financial statements). Hackers may not care about your identity. Often they
want to gain control of your computer so they can use it to launch attacks on
other computer systems.
Having control of your computer gives them the
ability to hide their true location as they launch attacks, often against
high-profile computer systems such as government or financial systems. Even if
you have a computer connected to the Internet only to play the latest games or
to send email to friends and family, your computer may be a target. Intruders
may be able to watch all your actions on the computer, or cause damage to your
computer by reformatting your hard drive or changing your data.
Installing and correctly configuring a firewall will protect your
computers from attack by hackers. Digitek Computers provides you with secure
computing environments by installing commercial grade firewalls on your office
and home networks. Call us and we'll be at there to help you within hours.
