Thanks for amazing advices

Good read! I like to think the best hackers are 

the one sitting next to your computer and watching carefully as you type in your password. 

Or the one who says: "I'm just the repair guy", and you believe him, but he ain't.

I love social engineering.

Black-ops level govt hired hackers are the most dangerous. I had one backdoor onto my computer and my wife's laptop in 2015 and plants files. They uploaded files and pics designed to make her look like a terrorist. On mine, I have no idea what they did but given my unusual lifestyle, I'm sure they took advantage of some of my facebook pics which the UK would now deem illegal such as the one where my friend is grabbing his crotch and sticking his tongue out. It's totally innocent but not by UK law. Someone wrote an article saying more than a hundred million facebook users would be guilty of child prn under UK law. (!!!!!)

Post was very informal and helpful. I have to make sure that I am following thesr rules because I only know a little about computers and other things I am interested in as far as creating app, coding and website development. hey @cleverbot do you think I should blog about decodeing?

Wow I didnt know all these.... Thanks for the advices :)

this post is so amazing, I'm so inspired to keep working hard on steem.

Feeling a bit paranoid now.

Could be a fun weekend of changing all passwords coming up

But thanks!! ;-)

Thank you for  this post. I look forward to reading the rest of your post. Following you.

Wow truly amazing post, I followed you and gave you my 100% upvote on several of your post 👍👍keep up the good work

OK your blog is dope. I'm following!

I thought this was both cool *and* interesting ... so, yeah, you got my UV -- and now here's my comment.  (Grin)  

First, I think there is potential for a separate article from each of your sub-headings.  A little extra information ... maybe some explanations of *why* these recommended techniques are such a good idea ... would fill the text out nicely for 4+ more articles / posts. 

Also, I'd encourage you to write other posts following this same idea on phishing and piggybacking rather than just suggest people Google those topics.  As someone who actually works in network security, you bring a valuable perspective to these issues.  Capitalize on your authority and standing for your audience.  (Don't send them away.  Now that  you've got their attention -- *impress them further.*  Teach.  Explain.  Give them extra value to take away when they do move on!) 

You could make this into a 6 - 7+ part series.  You write very well.  (You should *see* some of what I've waded through tonight.  This was an oasis of rest and refreshment -- and I thank you sincerely for that.) I would do my best to see these pieces get the support you -- and they -- deserve.

I really like your post. Nice!

Great post! Have definitely learned something new and I appreciate the information. Thank you for sharing. Best wishes  @splendorhub

Passwords are a pain. Thanks to steemit they are history...at least on steemit!
An interesting post. A solution to weak passwords is to make one using three random words like.

**banana curry monster**

Or something equally unrelated.

A brute force attack would take 18,000+ years to crack this simple method.

Scared much? Hackers are overrated. The public are just too lazy to protect themselves from themselves.
And generally deserve a good thrashing. 
(I said that out loud didn't I?)
I'll get my coat. ;)

nice work...I like your lingo...You talk like I do with all your mumbo jumbo :) lol

follow @nanocheeze

u can't see me :p

I would promote but I have no SBD to do so. Sorry

Wow, now this is what I call a useful post!

As far as passwords are concerned - unless, like me, you're a programmer who can afford to spend the time to build his/her own personal secure password vault software - I highly recommend using LastPass. I've been using it myself quite a bit in the past and can say it's probably your safest bet; and it's also really cheap too! Besides, I wouldn't really go as far as getting anxious about browser history and all that stuff. 

Now moving on to the security of the files on your computer..  I've been using Avast Premier for over 4 years and can guarantee you that no form of hack (of course, unless you're being specifically targeted by some genius hacker) will ever be able to breach your security. Avast offers standard antivirus, ransomware file protection, secure DNS, secure browser for banking, active online protection stopping you from entering phishing websites or downloading malware, etc.

Just my 2 cents, but that's  how I recommend someone stays safe.
