> SAFE COMPUTING

What can you do to protect yourself and your data? Keep your software up to date: This means your operating systems, browsers and plug-ins, as well as anti-virus and security software. Back up your files: Make sure you save a complete copy of your system from a known clean slate. It’s also good to have more than one. Also, if you use an automated backup, like Apple’s Time Machine, that mirrors your hard drive, if your computer becomes infected with malware, it may just be copied onto the backup drive. Protect yourself: Make sure your security software has some form of ransomware protection such as anti-exploit tools. Most do now, but you may need additional software protection
