Are you tired? Then maybe you should pause your scrolling session rather than take a nap. Because on average we spend 6 hours and 42 minutes on the internet every day.
That means some of us to spend more time online than in bed. And also more time than in the car. Do you actually lock your door in the evening before you go to bed? Or do you buckle up in the car before going to the office? Both are absolutely common security measures. We protect ourselves even though the likelihood of a break-in or an accident is rather low.
Can you say the same about your online life? The risk of a data breach or ransomware attack is just as real as any other risk in your life. Even so, we are often less cautious online, making ourselves a welcome target for hackers and malware.
We know how dangerous online threats are. That is why we worked for a long time on a secret project that we are proud to present to you today: Protegent Free Antivirus, one of the best-advanced security software packages we have ever developed. Protegent Free Antivirus includes:
- Password Manager - Creates and stores unique passwords
- Software Updater - Updates drivers and software, and optimizes the performance of your device
- Antivirus - Blocks spyware, ransomware, adware, and more
Bundled in security software, these functions protect you from a wide variety of online threats. With Protegent Free Antivirus, the following security problem can no longer affect you:
Data Breaches
A data breach is more than a leaked password. If your data falls into the wrong hands, it can have far-reaching consequences: For example, you could be locked out of your accounts or become a victim of identity theft. A hacker attack occurs every 39 seconds. So no protection is no solution. But what can you do if it's already too late and your username and password have been compromised by a data breach? In this blog article, we will show you what to do in the event of data theft and how to make your password really secure.
Outdated Software
Outdated software is found on more than half of all Windows PCs. That's a huge number, but why is that a problem? Admittedly, all these update reminders can be quite annoying. However, there is a good reason why it is so important to keep programs up to date.
Phishing
A phishing attack is hidden behind every 25 apparently official company emails. As these attacks become more common and severe, security software is a must. Hackers often pose as well-known companies in phishing attacks and forge email addresses and websites. So they try to get their victims to give up their personal data.
Promotional Ads
Only 25% of the Internet users surveyed in Europe and the USA find personalized advertising acceptable. However, this method of advertisers is unlikely to change shortly. As a rule, your personal data is not at risk if you see the appropriate advertising for your browser history. And yet it can feel like an invasion of your privacy.
Ransomware
In a ransomware attack, hackers gain access to third-party devices. Then they lock the device or encrypt the data on it. The name ransomware comes from the English word "ransom", in German "ransom". This is the ransom that hackers demand from their victims to decrypt the data and unlock the device. On average, hackers demand a ransom of a good $1,000. Did you know that you can actively reduce your risk of such an attack?
Malware
Malware or malicious software is software that has been specially developed to enable cybercrimes such as data theft or device manipulation. Malware attacks are becoming more common. So the risk of becoming a victim of a malware attack is greater than ever. Sounds scary, doesn't it? Before you worry: In this article, we'll explain everything you need to know about malware and how you can protect yourself.
