Hackers and Business

If you are using a PC you are subject to hacker on the internet. Make no mistake about this! I have been involved in the computer (PC) industry since it's creation back in the 70's and these hackers and virus writers are for real.

Here is a LINK to a 60 Minutes video on the current trends in hacking.

Make sure you have good AntiVirus software and that it is up to date. Also you need a good firewall to keep intruders out.

I have about 10 different website and there are hack attempts each and every night. So far my security has only been breached once.

If you want to end the problem, switch to a Mac. This will not completely eliminate the problem, but it will reduce it about 99%.
