Back up data and create backups

[bhasan01854]

Important data should always be backed up using so-called backups . This way, if necessary, it is still available and can be used even after data loss or theft. It is advisable to save the data on two separate external data storage devices and to update the backup at regular intervals.

Check before entering personal data
It is not uncommon, for example when registering car owner database on platforms or social networks , or during ordering processes, to have to disclose personal information. But as in real life, you should always make sure that the provider in question is also reputable. Personal information such as name, address, telephone number, etc. is highly sought after and enables criminal identity theft. So-called phishing sites are particularly perfidious. They recreate the websites of banks or online shops in a deceptively realistic way and thus steal data from unsuspecting users.

Keeping up to date
The machinations of criminals are becoming more and more creative. In order to protect yourself as best as possible, it is advisable to regularly inform yourself about security-related aspects and to keep yourself up to date. Various consumer portals and websites draw attention to new threats and provide valuable tips and advice.
