Jamie Saunders, the director of the NCA's National Cyber Crime Unit, said: "The internet is a great place to explore the world and do business, and the majority of people won't experience any problems. But for the minority who leave themselves unprotected, not downloading and updating their security software can be very costly. "It's tricky to put exact figures on the cost of cyber crime to the UK and the number of people who don't protect themselves, but what we do know is that far too many people continue to put themselves and others at risk online. "However, the cost to individuals not only hits their pockets but also their personal and family life, which is why it's important that everyone takes steps to protect their computer, tablet and mobile." The NCA is offering four key tips to users to improve web security: encouraging users to install security software, not open s from unknown sources, take caution with USB sticks and CDs, and buy software from legitimate sources only. The year 2014 has seen a series of high-profile cyber security issues, including the Heartbleed bug that affected the encryption and protection of personal data online, as well as the hacking of eBay's servers that saw passwords and user names compromised. According to statistics, almost 40 per cent of adults rarely install or update the security software on new devices, leaving them at risk. It is these sort of stats that have prompted this initiative, say the Government.

Tower of Babel. 1 The whole world had the same language and the same words. 2 When they were migrating from the east, they came to a valley in the land of Shinar and settled there. 3 They said to one another, “Come, let us mold bricks and harden them with fire.” They used bricks for stone, and bitumen for mortar. 4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the sky, and so make a name for ourselves; otherwise we shall be scattered all over the earth.” 5 The L ORD came down to see the city and the tower that the people had built. 6 Then the L ORD said: If now, while they are one people and all have the same language, they have started to do this, nothing they presume to do will be out of their reach. 7 Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that no one will understand the speech of another. 8 So the L ORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. 9 That is why it was called Babel, because there the L ORD confused the speech of all the world. From there the L ORD scattered them over all the earth. Genesis 11:1-9
