#1 Invest in proper Antivirus.
Many people download free versions. Why are they free, well quite frankly they are not that good. Invest in Norton or something that gives constant updates and makes sure that it is updated regularly.
#2 Choosing Passwords
One does not need the codes the President has for the special box he has with him. Try thinking of something that was never posted on Facebook. For example, try a song or movie phrase with few caps and throw in some special characters. Make them long and memorable. And never carry them in a wallet or purse.
#3 Check your Firewalls:
Make sure that they are set high and always on.
#4 Using free WIFI At Public places or Airports:
Tether off the smartphone it is secure, and only the files on the computer will not be seen by anyone else. Free can be very costly.
Stay safe and be vigilant and don't fall victim, to hackers.
