Are you leaving yourself open to attack? Symantec recently released an infographic titled “Top 5 Computer Security Mistakes”, which lists ways people make themselves vulnerable to hackers and other cyber-attacks. Some of these might seem basic, but even the most minor slips in vigilance could compromise your computer’s (or network’s) security. Here are the top five mistakes, according to Symantec:
- Assuming OS patching is good enough
- Failing to enforce configuration
- Not enforcing password policies
- Not educating users
- Insecurely storing data
You should definitely check out the infographic (below, or at Daily Infographic) for more information in each of these areas.
