Explaining Computer Security

Computer Security?

I have windows vista ultimate and i want to install some antiviruses.
I have webroot-spysweeper and norton antivirus. Can i install both of them? I tried installing 2 different antiviruses on my other computer and it totally crashed! Since i have 2 different products, i wonder if it will always crash if you have more than 1 antivirus working on 1 computer.
-thanks
P.S.- which is better? Norton antivirus or norton internet security?

You should never run more than one antivirus software in your computer, but with spyware is another story is wise to have more than one. I will said the norton internet security is much better than the antivirus alone. Remember no PC security product can possibly protect you from every new spyware and malware threat. The majority of these new threats would be undetected by most of the popular security programs, including the ones we all use. Some anivirus will detect spywares but can't delete them so don't think they don't work is just that they are not designed to solve those issues.
Here is a list softwares so you can create your own security suite based on freewares, this not only will secure your computer but also boost its performance.

Anti virus: Just run one antivirus on your PC, both options are great but i recommend AVG.

AVG free edition.

Avira Antivir:

Anti spyware: You can run more than one.

This is another combination recently posted at cnet.com
Comodo firewall+avira antivir+spyware terminator all of them are free and are excellent choices. I only add spywareblaster and advanced windowscare to that combo. you can download all of them at download.com.Restart in safe mode then run all your security software one by one. Be patient because this take some time to get it done and do it at list once per month

Computer Security: a Matter of Concern and Tips to Avoid Trouble

With so much of today’s business being transacted online, computer security is a major issue affecting businesses and consumers. For online businesses, there can be problems in the form of stolen credit card information, mailing or personal information. If you are selling information, your content may be hacked into and copied. This affects the business and customer adversely, since the customer is likely to blame the online business. This erodes the image of your business and discourages other customers from trusting you with their information. No one likes their email inbox to be bombarded with viruses and spam. If they feel that your site has something to do with it, your business and reputation will suffer long term damage. To avoid problems with your business’s computer security, follow the guidelines listed below.

Never allow external storage devices:–

Do not permit anyone to take data out of your system in any form of external storage device, such as floppy disks, CDs etc. for any reason. Obviously, this compromises your safety and that of your customers.

Limit employee access:–

Restrict employee access to files, folders and areas within the system that they require in their day to day work. Do not allow anyone to gain access to any information that they do not require. Make sure that you install systems that lock out employees who do not have authorization.

Third party outsourcing:–

Outsource your payment system to a third party such as PayPal, so that your liability is reduced in case of any computer security problems. This third party will have the necessary technological support to ensure that the customer and your business are safe. But to be sure of this, you will need to do a thorough check on your selected provider or choose a reputable one.

Check on your technology vendor:–

It is important to ensure that your technology vendor has taken steps to protect the server and the software in your system appropriately with firewalls etc. If it is possible and affordable, look into getting a third party security audit of the system from both ends – the server provider & the software at your end since leaks may be from either end. Pages that contain sensitive data should be appropriately protected with software security locks.

Newsletter email lists:–

If you have a newsletter, make sure that your online business keeps its mailing list secure and that no recipient can tamper with it or gain access to the list. This is essential in protecting the privacy of your customer information.

Affiliations with reputable associations:–

Form affiliations with trusted business and computer security organizations, such as BBBOnline, to ensure that customers feel safe coming to your site. The additional benefit of this is the identification of any flaws in the security through a check up.

Educate customers:–

It is imperative to educate your customers about computer safety. Ensure that they know your online business will not send them emails soliciting information and that if they receive any such mail, they should report it to you at once.

Content:–

Protect your content by ensuring that it is safe behind firewalls and other applications that prohibit unauthorized entry. As for public content, simply provide your visitors with updated and informative content regularly since good quality cannot be copied.
