Computer Security

Information Security refers to the characteristics and conditions of data processing systems and storage, to ensure confidentiality, integrity and availability.

TYPES

1.1- . Physical security
It is one that seeks to protect the hardware (wiring, computer tower, etc ...) of any accident or disaster: from theft (shoplifting) to natural disasters such as earthquakes
Physical security can be subjected to: fire, theft, flood, electrical surge and etc.
Here are our recommendations:
■ Cleans very appropriate from time to time, both readers and the motherboard and inside the tower, using the products for it
■ Try not to drink or pour liquids near the peripheral or the same motherboard. As an electronic component that is, it can reach your computer unusable .
■ Beware the voltage supported by the plate. Make sure that the voltage is correct revising the power supply.
■ Do not handle or you save the BIOS data unless you know to handle it properly, it could prove fatal.
■ Study well the data on your computer before making "overclocking" (make adjustments to "force" a little machine. Careful with this, because if you touch it you should not can "carry you" the computer ...)
1.2- . Logical Security
Software protects computer equipment, applications and really important data (like passwords and personal data) from theft, data loss and etc...

That's why we recommend the following:
■ Always have a backup (or several) of the most important data from your PC to have them even if your computer has a problem.
■ Install a good antivirus and I updated. Although it is free (there are really good, such as Avast or Avira free antivirus) work really well.
■ Do not open any suspicious or unsigned file without having spent a good antivirus scan. It is best to consult a specialized forum (as forospyware, for example) if you've opted for one in particular.
■ Much care and subtlety to the subject of the password. Write a reliable password for you but hard to decipher, especially to all the important files, or contain data that is actually useful. It is not recommended to use a different password for multiple accounts.
