Internet privacy and security is very
weak but it is the most talked about online and offline and on social
media and tv these days. Weak passwords and easy to remember usernames
are credited to all this. Plus companies that are not up to par with
security threats and breaches that can suck your life up just by these
hackers knowing your whole name social security numbers. Let alone your
local address in which you live or stay. With all of that ia going on,
should you the people trust anyone with your records anymore? I mean
just look around you. Nowadays anyone could be a hacker now. Meaning bad
hackers, the ones that want to make your life a living hell! While
there are good hackers out here that give you great tips and tricks on
how to make internet and your personal more simpler than ever. For the
internet and mobile devices, I have just a few simple solutions for you
all to take into serious consideration.
How to protect yourself online and offline
Make strong passwords. These passwords need to be at least 8 words or digits long. Try not to include symbols. Mainly letters and numbers. These passwords should not start off with abc, or 123, or password. Make sure they have nothing to deal with you.
Remember your usernames and passwords. Try not to save your passwords and usernames on your browsers or even computers unless they are pin protected and password protected. Or just create a password journal or diary and have a lock.
Turn off save passwords mode. In any browsing setting you will always find that save passwords mode is usually checked. Just turn it off and make sure you have saved and updated your settings so that your password wont ever reappear unless you input it into computer or program.
Turn off Autofill. You can also unmark this option in the internet browsing settings. Make sure your browsers forget all your information.
Turn on Do Not Track. In order for these ads not know what you interested in and websites visited, turn on Do Not Track option.
Disconnect from Internet. This could be the most important thing. Disconnect from your data, wifi and router. No one knows whats going on in your browser if you are completely offline and not connected. This also goes for bluetooth connectivity and as well as GPS signals also if on Tablets and Smartphones too.
Clear History. Your browsers usually remember what website you visit last. So you might want to check your history and delete all history.
New Internet Private Mode. You can also keep your information safe from cyber attackers and hackers and even family and friends by using the Browser Private Mode. This mode won't save any of your data or inputs. Once you have exit the browser, all of your data and inputs will go away and won't reappear until you do so.
Bonus:
My bonus tip and trick. This can help you on battery life as well too for any device. If you are not using that particular device at any time, turn off the device all the way. Make sure your device is shutdown and Not in Sleep Mode.
