This article mainly introduces how to protect e-mail security in network security, which has a certain reference value. Interested friends can refer to it. I hope you will gain a lot after reading this article. Let's take a look at it.

1. Use multiple email accounts

If you are like most people, then your email account may be the link for personal online activities. Come to think of it, your social networking site notifications, newsletters and other messages will be sent to your email, which means you put all your eggs in one basket. If you drop the basket, you will lose all your eggs. In other words, if you integrate all your activities into a single email account, then once that email is stolen by a hacker, all your personal information will be leaked, which is why multiple email accounts are used.

two。 Set up two or more passwords

Continue the concept of multiple accounts, the same is true of passwords. However, some people may say that if you set too many passwords, you may not be able to remember them, but at least you have to make sure that the password of your "master" email account is unique.

If you use the same password for all your emails, you are definitely making a rookie mistake. If a hacker breaks into your email account, your personal information will definitely be leaked.

3. Beware of phishing fraud

The so-called "phishing" means that when you have a problem with your account, someone will ask you to solve the problem by sending a user name and password to verify your identity. It looks real, but it's not. It's a way to steal user information. Sometimes asking for information from you may link you to a fake website, so users should be highly vigilant.

4. Do not click on the link in the email

Phishing also gives us a lesson, that is, do not easily click on the link in the email. When a link appears in an email, users should be careful, except for some specific emails, that is, when you register with a forum or website, there will be a step to activate the email. If you receive a spam email trying to sell you a particular product or service, when you click on a link, it may sometimes be safe, but it can also be dangerous, bringing a lot of viruses.

5. Do not open uninvited attachments

Attachments are a thorny issue when it comes to e-mail. If your friends or parents sent you an email, it may be more reliable when you open the attachment. But for those unsolicited e-mails, do not be confused by its appearance, because the file names of these emails may be forged, JPEG files may be disguised EXE files, as long as you download them, there may be viruses in them.

6. Watch out for malware that scans for viruses

Sometimes when you open an email, there may be software that scans for viruses. Some users may think that this should be a good thing, but it is not. Because sometimes these malicious software that scans for viruses sometimes add viruses to secure files.

7. Avoid using public Wi-Fi wireless network connections

It is very insecure to use a public Wi-Fi wireless network connection. Sometimes the operators behind the public Wi-Fi wireless network connection may be hackers who use the "network sniffer" to analyze the user's data information and steal the user's user name and password.
