Tech Tips: If you want to avoid cyber fraud, then know these 4 mantras, from password to backup, follow these tips..

In today's digital world, hacking and cybercrime have become one of the biggest challenges. Whether it's a common internet user or a big company, hackers are targeting everyone. In such a situation, a little caution on your part can save you from big losses. Let's know some important tips that can make your data and online accounts more secure.

Create a strong password and use 2FA.

Weak passwords are easy prey for hackers. Always keep a strong and unique password for banking apps and social media accounts. Along with this, definitely turn on two-factor authentication (2FA). This gives an additional layer of security that is difficult for hackers to break.

Caution in internet browsing

While using the internet, always check whether the URL of the website starts with https:// or not. This encrypts your data. Be even more cautious while browsing on public Wi-Fi. If there are constant pop-ups on a site or unwanted files are being downloaded, then immediately leave that site.

Backup data
The data saved in a mobile or computer can be lost at any time due to hacking, a virus, or device damage. Therefore, it is important to take regular backups of data. By setting the backup automatically, your data will be safe even in the event of an attack like ransomware.

Do not give unnecessary permissions to apps.
Always download apps only from official sources. Many times, apps ask for unnecessary permissions, through which hackers can access your personal data. So review the permissions of every app and give only the access you need.

Overall, it is not difficult to avoid cybercrime, just a little awareness and adopting the right habits is needed. With these easy tips, you can keep your data safe and enjoy the online world without any worry.
