This holiday season Americans will be using their computers more than ever to check deals online and keep in touch with family and friends. Here are a few tips to keeping your PC safe from viruses and spyware this season.
1. Make sure that your PC is up to date with all operating system patches and anti-virus updates. In addition, programs like Adobe Acrobat Reader and Adobe Flash have periodic security updates that are necessary for protection from spyware and viruses.
2. Never click a link in an email that you are unfamiliar with the sender.
3. When ordering online check and make sure that you see the https:// heading in your web browser. The s at the end of the http means that the site is using encryption between your browser and their server.
Wishing you safe browsing this holiday season!
