Computer Viruses... a big problem with small solutions

What is a virus? Something that spreads Something that slows down you computer The dictionary definition of a computer virus is: a segment of self-replicating code planted illegally in a computer program, often to damage or shut down a system or network. This just means something that repeats it’s self and is planted illegally in a computer programme and shuts down your computer. ALL IT TAKES IS ONE CLICK :/

Viruses can …

How can you protect yourself from viruses? You can use anti virus software > Some people choose not to use anti virus software because it can be very expensive and has to be updated lots. It is working 24/7 but is definitely worth it.

Different types of viruses The “I love you” virus. Sent by e- mail. The Melissa virus. Also sent by . Ever seen this ^^ ^^ ^^ It’s a virus. These are just some of the viruses you can get.

Hacking

What is hacking? Unauthorised access to your computer Something that a hacker creates to worm into your computer The dictionary definition of hacking is: to devise or modify (a computer program) usually skilfully. This just means : Something that changes your things cleverly. All your details theirs for just a few letters and numbers :o

What damage can hackers do?

Shut down your computer at night Use firewall and that's just about it ;) What can you do to stop hackers?

Backups

Why is it important to backup your work and information? Ever started your homework then your computer freezes? Don’t worry it happens to lots of people... Ever wondered what if I had backed up my information? Well yeah everyone thinks that but not a lot of them actually do that but it is possible to do so... :D you will never have to wonder into the classroom and try to explain your lack of homework again.

What should you backup your information or work to?

Where should you keep your backed up work and information? Keep it well away from your computer Don’t let your family get hold of your files Basically put it somewhere safe :)

How can you keep your backups secure? As you saw in my hackers presentation you should always let your parents know what your doing on your laptop. You can let them know that you have put your files onto a memory stick to keep the safe then put the memory stick into a safe place then your siblings wont be able to overwrite your files :)
