IS YOUR COMPUTER A ZOMBIE THIS HALLOWEEN? ACCORDING TO THE FBI, OVER 1 MILLION COMPUTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE. HACKER’S ENSLAVE A NETWORK OF HUNDERDS OF COMPUTERS THAT ARE USED TO SEND OUT PHISHING EMAILS, COMMIT FRAUD OR LAUNCH GHASTLY ATTACKS AGAINST OUR NATION’S INFRASTRUCTURE.
DON’T BE ONE OF THE 78% OF AMERICANS THAT DON’T HAVE THE CORE PROTECTIONS TO FIGHT OFF INFECTIOUS ZOMBIE PROGRAMS. BE SURE TO USE ANTI-VIRUS, ANTI-SPYWARE AND FIREWALL SOFTWARE AND KEEP IT ALL UP TO DATE.
RON TEIXEIRA IS THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE NCSA:
“Most Americans don’t regularly up date their security software, leaving them exposed to hackers and cyber criminals. 39 seconds after your computer is connected to the Internet, someone is already trying to turn it into a zombie. Fight back. Be sure to up date your software regularly, and don’t download attachments from unsolicited email.”
“PROTECT YOURSELF BEFORE YOU CONNECT YOURSELF” DON’T LET YOUR COMPUTER BECOME ANOTHER ZOMBIE THIS HALLOWEEN.
