NEW 2017 EDITION
Now in it's 4th reprint over 3 years this book has been written to be used by people who have no real computer knowledge, or very basic computer security skills. If you think of yourself as 'an expert' then you probably don't need this.
Internet Security or Internet Privacy books are often written with too much technical jargon included, which makes them very intimidating for someone with little or no tech knowledge.
Internet Security & Internet Privacy whilst using Laptops, Smartphones and Tablets to connect to the online world should be uppermost in all web surfers minds these days, especially as recently there have been several high profile companies which have fallen foul of hackers.
If you're not protecting your devices - then you'll probably have problems with malfunctions on your devices caused by viruses, malware and other nasties at some point.
This book will also help you check and protect against the Cryptolocker Ransomware and ZeuS Threat levels that have been raised again as newer versions have evolved which are impossible to recover from.
The reality is, If you aren't taking care of it all, then eventually the hackers certainly will.
You'll discover how to diagnose possible security issues on your devices, how to rectify the issues you find and then how to maintain them and keep them running smoothly in the future. Even better - I'll show you how to do it all using mainly free software and resources.
There's also a section on data recovery and extracting data from a dead device, should you be unfortunate to have a hardware fault which renders your device unbootable.
No longer will you need to depend on your partner, kids or friends to sort out your laptop, smartphone or tablet devices when they're just not working properly... or have to pay sky high prices to the experts to have it repaired.
This short book is designed to empower those people who have computer issues, but have always had to get someone else to sort them out.
Laid out in a simple style, it should be easy for anyone to follow, whatever their skill level. In fact, when you’ve read it, you could soon be the one people are turning to when their devices aren't working properly.
This book is an expanded version of a course I teach on Udemy.com, here's what a couple of the students there have said:
Five Star Review: "I'm not the world's greatest computer expert, so anything that makes my life less of a hassle on my desk-top when things go wrong has to be a good thing. This course tells me all I need to know to solve, overcome and prevent problems. Well worth the small investment."
Five Star Review: This course filled in the gaps on how to protect my pc. I've been dealing with a slow pc for months. Now I have a faster pc.
