In The Present, There is an Exponential Growth in Cyber-Attacks, Leading To Concerns of Data Theft.
So That,This Are The Step To Protect Yourself Against Cyber Attacks.
    1. Keep your software updated :

    This is especially important with your operating systems and internet security software. Cybercriminals frequently use known exploits, or flaws, in your software to gain access to your system. Patching those exploits and flaws can make it less likely that you’ll become a cybercrime target.

    2. Manage your social media settings :

    Keep your personal and private information locked down. Social engineering cybercriminals can often get your personal information with just a few data points, so the less you share publicly, the better. For instance, if you post your pet’s name or reveal your mother’s maiden name, you might expose the answers to two common security questions.

    3. Use strong passwords :

    Don’t repeat your passwords on different sites, and change your passwords regularly. Make them complex. That means using a combination of at least 10 letters, numbers, and symbols. A password management application can help you to keep your passwords locked down.



    4. Take measures to help protect yourself against identity theft :

    Keep your personal and private information locked down. Social engineering cybercriminals can often get your personal information with just a few data points, so the less you share publicly, the better. For instance, if you post your pet’s name or reveal your mother’s maiden name, you might expose the answers to two common security questions.

    5. Take appropriate actions if you have been a Victim:

     There are few things that should be done as soon as you realize you have been hacked :
    • File a formal complaint with the police and inform the other relevant authorities.
    • Try regaining access to your compromised accounts by utilizing secondary contacts.
    • Reset the password for other accounts and websites that were using the same password as the account that was compromised.
    • Perform a factory reset and proper formatting of your devices that are affected(assuming you have your data backed up already).  



    Stay Aware Of The Current Data Breaches And Other Incidents Of The Cyber World To Prevent Such Incidents From Happening Again And Staying Safe Online.

    STAY SAFE,STAY HAPPY.
