IT Security
IT Security is a serious issue that cannot be ignored by anyone who uses a computer. Even If you believe you don't have anything worth protecting on your computer, it is still important to keep it safe.
'How would you like to get a call from the police telling you that there's been a cyber attack which has been traced back to your computer ? or that your credit card has been used to fund a serious crime' ?
It is therefore important to be aware of the 'bad guys' in cyberspace and how they utilise various methods to infiltrate your computer and carry out malicious acts with your identity.
In this section we have provided you information on all the major types of security threats and how to protect and prevent yourself from becoming the next target.
