Privacy and Network information

Day by day when the technology is going fast and getting higher in terms of achievement, each and every hour especially in the field of computer. The problem of security is also arising with the same speed.

No one is secure using the Internet with his own PC at his home or from a network of his/her office.

If a person uses a computer from his or her home and is surfing a website. The site often collects information such as, the city you are located in, which software and operating system you are using, from which link you are entered here, and how many clicks you have on that web site.

With the help of the click on a website, owners and marketers judge what a user prefers and what they want, this can help them to improve their services and also help them for marketing purposes.

On the other hand if you are using a computer in your office, which is connected to an entire network of that office, then you are being watched by your boss, he keeps eyes on each and every person via the network.

These kinds of software, which shows the activities of employees, are known as surveillance software. This kind of software shows the screen of each and every computer connected to the network, keeps records of the number of keystrokes pressed per minute, and also shows what computer files are used and for how long.

Due to this every one using the Internet are not normally using it privately because a website normally tracks and records what a surfer is using.

On the other hand, office employees are not private because of his/her boss is using a surveillance software.

You can have more privacy when surfing the Internet by doing the following:
Always use a reliable firewall, such as the one recommended on this website.

Make sure you have ad removing software such as adware. This removes scumware what can jeopardize your privacy.

Once you have these up and running, set your Internet to medium/high on the privacy settings.

This is different for different browser but is normally located in the options/tools. Once you have done this, set your cookies to delete after you exit each website. Again this is different for each browser.

The final thing to do is set your browser to delete all offline content every time you close your browser. If you apply all of these, you can surf more privately in your home and feel more comfortable.

On a final note – Always upgrade your operating system with the latest patches from your operating systems website. This will help seal any known or arising security issues.

I would recommend doing this all the time, however if you use online banking it is essential you keep up to date with security settings and patches. This helps keep your details safe and slams the door on intruders.
