your valuable files by sending
malicious programs.

Back in February of 2016, we

Tip 1: Always scan a pen (USB)
drive before opening it.
If you know that the pen drive has
viruses and if you want to be extra
cautious, format the pen drive
before working with it.

Tip 2: Do not install untrusted
software.
An untrusted program may
contain malicious code that can
be dangerous for your computer.

Tip 3: Do not add untrusted
browser extensions
Before adding a browser
extension, research it because it
can steal your login credentials.

Tip 4: Use caution while opening
email attachments
Email attachments often contain
viruses, malware, and spyware so
use caution while reading an email
from an unknown source.

Tip 5: Say “no” to torrent downloads
Do not download pirated software,
movies, songs, etc. because viruses,
spyware, and malware also get
downloaded along with these files
without your consent.

Tip 6: Check for Windows updates
regularly.
When Microsoft finds security
issues in Windows, they send
patches through Windows updates
to fix the issues.

Tip 7: Protect your PC with a good
antivirus program
Even Microsoft, which developed
Microsoft Security Essentials,
suggests you use a Third-Party
Antivirus.

You may hear, “For Windows 8 and
above, you don’t need to install any
additional antivirus program as the
inbuilt Windows Defender is powerful
enough to protect you from viruses,
malware, and spyware.”

If you hear such a statement,
seek advice elsewhere.
