Have you ever wondered why your boss knows that you had copied company’s top secret files and in the end getting you fired? Have you ever encountered a situation where your friends told you that you have been online during the day but actually you were not? Or have you ever found that a bank called you because you have transfer all your money to another account through online but actually you didn’t?
These situations above are very common in our daily life no matter you realize or not. Even if it never happens on you, I bet you have heard of this situation before. We must ‘thanks’ spyware for its help. Spyware is some kind of program that might send your personal information in your computer to another computer in extreme details, including your key strokes. Isn’t this illegal? Most of the time, you are the one who agreed, downloaded and installed into your computer. You didn’t? Spyware is just everywhere and approximately 90% of computers that use internet are infected by spyware. Some programs include spyware and most people just don’t even bother to go through the terms and conditions especially when it is free. You can’t do anything if it is your company’s computer because the computer belongs to them, not you but there are protocols for them in using spyware. So, don’t worry.
The disaster that might cause by spyware is can’t be predicted but can be described with a word, devastated. I believe computer had become an essential part in our life as we used it to store our information due to convenience. For hackers, it is just a gold mine. With the help of spyware, it just makes hacker’s life easier. All they need to do is just waiting for you to type in your personal information such as password and account number. Therefore they can gain access to your account and your life by just a few clicks. Spyware can destroy your data, bankrupt you in a second and duplicate your identification. Maybe one day you will find out that there is another person with your name, living your life, using your money and committing crime on your behalf.
When there is a problem, people will try to counteract the problem with a solution. With suitable anti-spyware program, most of the spyware will be detected immediately. It can detect and eliminate the incoming spyware before it can do any damages. As thetechnology is getting advanced, there isn’t any anti-spyware program which can filter and detect all the spyware available as there will always have a new spyware created to sneak into your computer. The best solution is constantly update your anti-spyware system and be extremely cautious with your internet surfing and program installation.
Good luck…
