People usually start caring about security only once it is too late: after an encrypted computer, a stolen account or a payment sent to a fraudster. Yet 90 % of attacks are not about brilliant hackers, but about ordinary carelessness that a few habits can prevent.

This is a hub page for our security articles. From passwords and antivirus through scams to protecting a business. Pick what you are dealing with, you do not have to read it all at once.

Passwords and sign-in

The weakest link is usually the password. Start with how to make a strong yet memorable password and why a password manager with two-factor authentication is worth it.

Protecting the computer

Good news: for an ordinary computer, Microsoft Defender is enough for most people. The bad news: the threat is not just a virus. Look at the types of viruses and malware and types of hacker attacks, so you know what you are protecting against.

Scams and phishing

This is the most common way people lose money today. Learn to spot a phishing e-mail and scam messages, because attackers today do not crack passwords, they trick the person.

Network, WiFi and web

An attack often comes not through the computer, but through a poorly secured router or public WiFi. Check how to secure your router and who is connected to your WiFi.

Security in a business

In a company it is not just one computer, but the whole operation and customer data. Start with the 7 principles of cybersecurity for small businesses and how to defend against ransomware that encrypts your business.
