by James watson James

With a rapid increase in number of viruses and online frauds, digital world can longer be considered as completely safe. However, adoption of some preventive measures can help you ensure the protection of your devices and the data, applications as well as software installed on it. You can also go for a shortcut and get a Norton antivirus from the ones mentioned below:

  • Norton Security Premium
  • Norton Security Deluxe
  • Norton Security Standard
  • Norton WiFi Privacy
  • Norton Mobile Security and more

Available with further categorizations at Norton.com/setup, Norton anti-viruses are popular for delivering endpoint protection to the Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android devices. You can choose a plan according to your particular security needs. Once purchased, a Norton antivirus needs to be downloaded, installed, and activated by following the correct guidelines. Apart from this, other tips that can help of avoid from becoming a victim of the hacking or virus-attacks. These tips are:

Passwords

While setting up the passwords for your home PCs, email IDs, and computer networks, make sure you do not go with the default ones. Set a password that is a combination of small and capital letters, numbers, and special symbols (@ # $ % * &).

Setting up the network IDs

You need to be tricky while setting up the network IDs for your home router. For this, you can choose a separate network for computer, printer, and the other for computing devices. Also, set an individual SSID for the additional household devices such as smart televisions, gaming consoles, etc. That’s because if your gaming console will get infected with virus, it will only affect or harm its respective network.

Firewalls for device protection

Don’t forget to set up a fire wall to protect your device against all the virus attacks and hacking attacks. These firewalls have the tendency to ward off backdoor attempts as well. The best thing about the Norton products (downloaded through Norton setup), most of them come up with a pre-loaded firewall.

Always take an immediate action whenever you find something fishy or suspicious either on the computer network or in your device.
