Everyday Security I

When it comes to security and computers, most people think the well-advertised threats of viruses, spyware or adware.

But the fact is that most of us are more vulnerable to the prying eyes of our neighbors, bosses, friends, or the people in the coffee shops next to use who might be reading our e-mail than we are to malicious Trojan horses and worms.


Secure Your File

Password-protection of files on a pc could be done at application level. That means you would use the application that created the file to create the password protection.

Use password in Word through Tool menu, select Options and then from the Security tab, put a password in the ‘Password to open’ box. Certain mainstream applications allow such security, as well. Consult the Help file of the application to find out.

One way to password-protect other kinds of files is by using a file compression utility such as Winzip or Winrar, and assign a password to the resulting Zip or Rar file. Or you could enlist the help of a third party utility that will encrypt files and folders for you such as AxCrypt or FolderLock.
