Don’t Accept Unknown Invitation


                  Never  accept  invitations  from  an  unknown  person  on
                  social media. It may be an attempt to just get your personal
                  profile related information such as phone number, e-mail,
                  photos, etc.
                  Use Antivirus and Antispyware Software

                  Use of licensed antivirus software, anti-spyware software, firewall, etc. are some measures to reduce cyber-
                  attacks. Always keep these softwares up-to-date. ‘Antivirus’ and ‘Antispyware’ programs offer real-time
                  protection to the computer from malwares and reduce the risk of getting hacked.
