The whole world is already going crazy over the WannaCry ransomware. "WannaCry ".. seriously who named this thing? These guys need to find more hilarious names The Wannacry Ransomware Attack affected about 230,000 Windows PCs and requested that users pay to a bitcoin address to unlock their computers. The ransomware is just one out of a million ways that hackers can gain access to your information. A hacker can create malicious web pages that will install trojans and spyware that will steal information from your device . A malicious attachment can also sent via email to victims. In cases like this, opening the email can install malicious software and compromise the total security of your system or device. Here are a few attacks that can affect your browser - Active X exploit, Java applets attack, Scripting attack / Session Hijacking / XSS, Buffer Overflow, etc. Here are 7 ways to protect your browser while surfing the web 1.

Lol. I can certainly say this post was not copied And those saying nairaland does not have SSL... have you for once tried putting up an ad on nairaland and the page is not on ssl? I think SSL is most important when you want to enter credit card details. Meanwhile, I wrote a very comprehensive post on how you can add a WhatsApp live chat feature on your website or blog https://techpoints.com.ng/add-whatsapp-live-chat-button-website/ |
