NetEase Technology News, according to foreign media reports, Microsoft said on Friday that a small number of computers within the company, including the Mac software business department, were infected with malicious software, but there was no evidence that user data was affected. This security incident is similar to the recent situation in Apple, Facebook and other companies, where the company's internal computers were infected with malware.

A lot of business information data is particularly important in the business operation of enterprises, whether the enterprise holds customer data, or personal data, if lost, it may lead to great economic losses. (of course, the Microsoft incident did not lead to actual economic operation.)

This raises the question: "how can we protect our (and even our company) information from threats?"

When people generally accept new knowledge, they start with a simple cognition, so let's take a look at what is a "computer virus"?

Computer viruses (malware) usually run in the background of your computer and may include your mobile device. They want your bank account, your online shopping account, and your personal information. Why?

Because when they get it, there are many ways to get rich economic benefits from it.

Once a "computer virus" infects your computer or mobile device, they can guess what is being done on the keyboard, that is, it can be read.

Once they have information about you, these viruses can do the following:

Take the money from your personal bank card or financial account or transfer it somewhere else

Access your mailbox, some free storage network disks, and thieves your personal information.

Use your online shopping account and buy things in your name in some online shopping malls, such as Taobao, Dangdang, computer Mall, etc.

Botnet: refers to the use of one or more means of transmission, a large number of hosts infected with bot programs (botnets) virus, so as to form an one-to-many control network between the controller and the infected host. * people spread zombie programs through various ways to infect a large number of hosts on the Internet, and the infected hosts will receive instructions from * users through a control channel to form a botnet. The name botnet is used to make people more aware of the characteristics of this kind of harm: many computers are unwittingly driven away and directed like zombies in ancient Chinese legends. become a tool to be used by people.

At this point, if you think that from now on, you should pay more attention to taking good care of your personal information, then you have not wasted your time reading on it!
