Improve your Security
About the Bundle
These are individual books which together make the full eBook "Improve your security".
# Who should read this book?
You have an email account, a Facebook account, a LinkedIn or XING account. And you have passwords for them. You think you're secure. But you are not.
These days, cybercriminals aren't only after our computers' resources. They are interested in our identity, financial information and in our social media accounts.
That's why it's important to know how to properly protect your online assets against cybercrooks.
The content of the book was initially written as a collection of blog posts that were published on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and XING. I noticed the high interest of the users of these services in my posts. This was a signal for me that there are people out there who want to know more and want to do more for their security and privacy.
It is expected from the reader to have a basic knowledge about various IT concepts, but as a user and not as a specialist. Usually, if you are just interested in technology, have an email address and/or a Facebook account you will be able to understand this book very well.
***You should definitely read this book***
- If you are a user who thinks about what is happening with the data that you publish online (pictures, texts in all forms, songs, etc.).
- If you are aware that there are people out there who want your data not because of its value for them but for you. Once they get your data, they might ask you to pay to get it back.
- If you want to become for your children also in the online world the guide and the model that you are in the real life.
