I hope all SIZ family are well and enjoy a happy life.

of computer virus.

Antivirus software:

A type of software that is used to detect and remove viruses is called antivirus software. Antivirus programs contain information about different known viruses. They can detect viruses and remove them.
Many antivirus programs are available in the market. But no single software can detect and remove all viruses many new viruses are invented and spread through internet continuously. Antivirus programs are also upgraded continuously to detect these new viruses. Antivirus is program not only detects viruses from computer, but also prevent new viruses from entering into the computer.

Examples:
. Norton Antivirus
. Kaspersky
. McAfee
. AVG
. NOD32

Benefits:
Some important benefits of using antivirus programs are as follows:
. Antivirus program protects important data from virus.
. It check all files before they entry computer system.
. It alert the user about the virus before it causes any damage to computer.
. It quarantines or eliminates a virus so that it may not harm computer.

Security Threats:

Data is an important and valuable asset of any organization. It is more important than hardware. There are different Threads to data security. The data can be damaged in two ways:

Intentional Threats:

A user can intentionally delete important data. The intentionally threads may occur for the following reasons.
. A hacker can delete data on a computer.
. An angry employee of the organization can delete the data.

Unintentional Threats:

The unintentional threats to data security are as follows:
. An authorized user of data may delete or change the sensitive data accidentally.
. A technical failure of the hardware may damage the data.
. A sudden power failure may also cause data loss.

Solutions to Data Threats:

The data can be protected using different methods. Some important ways to minimize security threats are as follows:

User Rights:*

The users must be assigned proper rights to minimize security threats. Every authorized user should not be followed to change or delete data. The user with certain rights may be allowed to delete or modify data after following a step by step process.

Periodic 🔙 up:
Periodic backup of data should be taken regularly. The backup can be used to meet the situation of some occurs.

Passwords🔑:

Another solution to these problems is the use of proper password. Passwords must be entered to use any resource. A log file should also be maintained to keep track of all the activities on data and files. Authorized users should change their passwords periodically. Very short and common words should not be used as passwords.

Encryption:

Some strong encryption algorithm should be used. Encryption is a process of encoding data so that only authorized user may understand and use it. If an unauthorized person gets access to the data, he should not be able to understand it.

Scanning:

The data provided to organization must be scanned before used. Proper virus scanning software should be used to scan all data. The software can detect the infected data and in the indicated message to the users.

Lock🔐:

Computers and all baking storage devices should be placed in a locked rooms. Only authorized users should be allowed to access these resources.
