    Protecting stuff from the Professional hackers!

    Uploading a file freely accessible to any hacker, and then rewarding him by allowing him to extract its information with a large amount of money. Instead send the same file to MNC’s Like google, apple, Microsoft or any other company having lots of rich enterprise and having a very strong strategic interest in recovering the file . How can we protect a website from a hacker?

    Financial fraud online is an serious problem that is getting bigger day by day because people don't take precautions. The intruders will never stop, because all they need is one fool out of the thousands they spam.

    Here's how to protect your online accounts from hackers
    1. Professional hackers are the people who watch you at the ATM machine and hack your pin number. So cover your hand completely while typing ur pin number. Sometimes the metal on the ATM machine can reflect your hand, so cover your hand with your body properly. Don't think about what people will think. It only takes one time for a hacker to get your information.
    2. Always Use different passwords for all the different online accounts. If you use the same password, if a thief gets one of your accounts, he gets them all.
    3. don’t choose passwords as your name, Birthdates, Favorite places etc. Because if the hacker knows you very well then he will definitely try to check this one’s.
    4. Use crazy characters in your passwords. Mix cases of letters, use the shift-number keys, and don't spell words.
    5. Protect your credit and monitor your credit report. Hackers can get information about this also.
