This book explains some of the little and big errors that we tend to do in our daily use of computers, smartphones and the Internet. We will discuss about security, data preservation and privacy. You’ll learn some basic techniques of defence from hackers and how to protect your data.
The book originates from a collection of hundreds of emails, recommendations and notes that I repeatedly sent to colleagues and friends, guilty of inappropriate behaviours towards computer security. They were accustomed to view IT security as an unnecessary boring and a time-losing activity. In the meanwhile the IT security issues have grown exponentially, and negligence is still the main approach of the average IT user, both at home and at work. I personally assisted to the great part of the examples in this book.
