Computer security

Computer security is not all about end user computing, it also includes server/application infrastructure. For any data transfer between server and client, both ends should be secure. Even the communication channel should be secure enough to avoid data theft.

We know that professionals understand network security, but how about end users? We can force users to implement security strategies, but is that enough? For better security, awareness is key. Security issues are constantly being found with the software we use every day, including common and reliable programs such as Windows, Internet Explorer, and Adobe's PDF Reader. It is therefore very important that we take some simple steps towards becoming more secure.
