Keeping the bad guys away

Posted in Web Security

If every hour a burglar turned up at your house and rattled the locks on the doors and windows to see if he could get in, you might consider moving to a safer neighbourhood.


I was looking at a very interesting article on the BBCwebsite about the way hackers operate.

As some of you might know it is a constant battle to keepmost hackers away from your blogs. The irony is that I am having to learn sometricks that were most definitely not taught at university :).

 

Anyway the folks at the BBC set-up some form of trap, youcan read the whole article here. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/5414502.stm

 

To cut a long story short this article tells you howimportant it is to protect your computer, make sure that you have the latestsecurity software installed.

It is also very important to have a firewall installed; youwill be amazed to know how many of you are running unprotected computers.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me and I will behappy to help you.
