    Your digital subscriber line (DSL) or cable modem gives your computer continuous access
    to the Internet. Think of it as the front door to your homeyou need to keep it secure to
    keep criminals out. You wouldn't open the door to just anyone, or distribute copies of your
    house key. The same discretion applies here.
    Make these things a habit.
    1. Keep operating systems, application software and browsing tools up to date and set
    them to automatically install updates. Because, they most likely provide your first defense against malware, viruses, and other things that create damage or allow illegal
    access to your computer or network.
    2. Set your browser and your email spam/junk filter to the medium or high security settings. Turn on your pop-up blocker. Never click on email links from unknown or suspicious sources. Because, this can protects against spam or phishing schemes. Spam is
    an unsolicited email that pretends to come from a well known company or even someone you know.
    3. Install and regularly update anti-virus and firewall protection on all computers that
    you owneven equipment that isn't internet accessible. Because, unprotected devices
    can spread infection through the internet, and also through USB drives and other removable media like your digital camera.
    4. Avoid using unfamiliar computers, mobile devices and networks, especially those provided in airports, hotels, internet cages and other public locations. Always log off from
    all websites that you use.
