Large companies employ IT professionals to ensure their computer systems are kept clean and secure. Home users do not have the luxury of the same assistance easily. Therefore here are some basic tips to help stay safe and secure at home, especially when purchasing online. The following slants towards Windows users in a couple of places. Apologies to Mac and Linux users.
Home computing
Large companies employ IT professionals to ensure their computer systems are kept clean and secure. Home users do not have the luxury of the same assistance easily. Therefore here are some basic tips to help stay safe and secure at home, especially when purchasing online. The following slants towards Windows users in a couple of places. Apologies to Mac and Linux users.
Anti virus software
Many people have antivirus software from one of those listed here. I know some home users who have free versions on their laptops. Once taking their laptop to public places or on holiday, they thought they remained safe. This is not true and can result in bringing an infected laptop home. A free version is a lot safer sat behind a home router. Outside of the home, the antivirus software should be upgraded for use on a public domain, eg, “AVG Internet Security”.

Passwords
Many security hackers know that mothers often use the names of their children. Words can be memorable but do not use those in dictionaries. Generators exist such as at nexcess.net to create memorable, meaningless passwords. While some very powerful computers exist to crack passwords much faster than in the table shown, good websites have counter measures against “brute force” attacks. However, it is good practice if the password length is about 12 characters with at least one capital letter, number and a wild card symbol (eg, !$%&# etc). Add 2-factor authentication if available.

Anti keylogging software
Secure passwords are important as described already but there still exists malicious programs designed to record user key strokes (which can include be people’s passwords for banking and other sites), if a computer becomes infected. However, software also exists to prevent this and complements anti-virus and anti-spy software. I have tried several anti keylogging apps ( incl Zemana, SpyShelter and KeyScramber) but I am best pleased with Ghostpress by Schiffer and many positive reviews.

http vs https
HTTP is not secure. HTTPS is secure meaning that other parties cannot see, eavesdrop or tamper with the website content that people are browsing. The address in the top bar may or may not be preceded with https:// or https://. And it may not say “secure”. So keep with #3 and #4 (lock and icons) if you have passwords, banking or payments involved. Functionally there is no difference between #3 and #4, other than the icon, which Google Chrome introduced in Sept 2023.
Surprisingly there are still insecure websites selling merchandise. I would not buy from these sites.
#1 may also appear with the ⚠ icon instead of the ⓘ icon. I have often accessed
ⓘ sites carefully for viewing only.

Website reputation ratings
Also known by other names such as URL scanning. Not all antivirus programs provide alerts to shady websites and those containing disreputable advertisers. However, there exists specialist sources that use very varied means to expose dubious websites. Two such sources providing reputation ratings of other websites are mywot.com and urlvoid.com. Free browser extensions also exist from “McAfee WebAdvisor”, “Malwarebytes Browser Guard” and the “WOT” extension.

Suspicious emails
Despite the measures already mentioned, there are all kinds of viruses or bugs that can come via emails, usually inviting people to link to a dodgy website. These sites can look very authentic and convincing whilst being completely bogus. I get many such emails. When hovering over the alleged sender in any inbox, a small box appears as in the example shown. This often exposes suspicious emails and domains.

Win 7 and Win 10
Much is already written that support for Windows 7 ended in Jan 2020, meaning no more security updates. One lesser known caveat is that new security updates to Win 10 and 11 are well publicized and this information is exploited by rogue hackers to write malware for Win 7 and Win XP computers, many of which are still used in homes and businesses. See www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/end-of-support.

Router security
Most home users have a modem (providing internet connection) and a router (that routes the internet data to devices in the home). The modem and router are often combined into one box. This box also contains software and can be hacked and is a favourite target for rogue hackers nowadays. Normal antivirus software will not help. This is a big subject but, if a router comes from the internet provider, ask them how the software is updated, automatically by them or if the home user has to do it. Some old routers also have default admin passwords making it easy for rogue hackers to gain access and alter the settings.

Trashing computers
If a computer is trashed responsibly at a household waste tip, don’t assume the hard drive or solid state drive won’t end up in the wrong hands. I know of one person who carefully deleted the hard drive and emptied the recycle bin first. It found its way to Nigeria where people had the means to read the “ghost” data left behind and extracted their bank details.
There exists specialist recycling facilities in most cities who can physically shred drives (see before and after). Some drives also have components deemed toxic. Drilling many holes in disk drives may still miss some tracks.

Shredding digital documents
Many people will likely have personal data on digital documents in their home computer. There are software routes for shredding digital documents in hard disk or solid state drives. This is more secure than ordinary deletion but shredded data can be recovered by a determined expert with advanced forensics, even if the disk was re-formatted. There also exists companies who specialize in recovering shredded or deleted data from drives. Many antivirus programs have options available to (say) shred all data from the PC Recycle Bin such as from McAfee, making recovery more difficult. Or use a free app from fileshredder.org. This is certainly better practice than ordinary deletion until the computer or drive is no longer needed. However, when the drive is of no more use, shredding the physical drive as shown above is “bullet proof”.

Check data breaches
People can search their email address or phone number on haveibeenpwned.com to check if they were on a database that has been breached by malicious hackers. If so, they can go to those websites and use another email address (say) or just change their email password. Click here for independent review by Malwarebytes.

Credential stuffing
Oddly this stems from data breaches and is a growing problem where attackers use data acquired from old breaches, mentioned above, to breach more websites. It relies on users who use the same usernames and passwords across multiple services. There are many tools available online to help the attacker do this. So if people use a strong a password and use it on many sites, they may be at risk still. There are 4 remedies –
➢ Avoid or restrict re-use of passwords. ➢ Use multi-factor authentication where possible such as SMS. ➢ Use a password manager. ➢ Regularly check there are no data breaches (as described above).

Internet Service Provider (problem)
Also called an ISP. They route all user internet activity through a DNS (Domain Name System) first. Therefore, whilst an ISP cannot see anyone’s activity in detail, they will know what sites people are going to. Some ISPs then sell this information, so that the list buyer can target computer users in some way. However, users can prevent ISPs knowing what websites they visit if they wish. It’s free and easy and described next below.

Internet Service Provider (solution)
The section immediately above describes how ISPs work. Here we describe a solution to control your selection of DNS so that your ISP can’t see where you go. Its easy to install a utility from Sordum called DNS Jumper which is easy to use and provides control over which DNS people visit. In the picture immediately left, we recommend selecting the Cloudflare DNS. Click here for more information on Cloudflare. It’s useful that DNS changes using this app does not require a computer re-boot. Currently Sordum software is Windows only. Presumably there is something similar for Mac and Linux users.

Children safety
Whilst not strictly related to this article on “Buying Online Safely”, Sordum have another free utility called DNS Angel which is specifically to help parents save their children from seeing any of the vast array of uncensored material on the internet that is particular unsuitable for young minds. Cloudflare is featured here again. Again, no re-boot required and for Windows only currently.

The following is a list of categories of personal information which we may collect or may have been collected from California residents within the last twelve (12) months.
Please note that the categories and examples provided in the list below are those defined in the CCPA. This does not mean that all examples of that category of Personal Information were in fact collected by Us, but reflects Our good faith belief to the best of Our knowledge that some of that information from the applicable category may be and may have been collected.

✱ Personal Information covered by certain sector-specific privacy laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FRCA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) or California Financial Information Privacy Act (FIPA), and the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994.
4.2 Sources of Personal Information
We obtain the categories of Personal Information listed above from the following categories of sources –
Directly from You. For example, from the forms You complete on Our Service, preferences You express or provide through Our Service, or from Your purchases on Our Service.
Indirectly from You. For example, from observing Your activity on Our Service.
Automatically from You. For example, through Cookies We or Our Service Providers set on Your Device as You navigate through Our Service.
From Service Providers. For example, third-party vendors to monitor and analyze the use of Our Service, third-party vendors to deliver targeted advertising to You, third-party vendors for payment processing, or other third-party vendors that We use to provide the Service to You.
4.3 Use of Personal Information for Business or commercial purposes
We may use or disclose personal information We collect for “business purposes” or “commercial purposes” (as defined under the CCPA), which may include the following examples –
To operate Our Service and provide You with Our Service.
To provide You with support and to respond to Your inquiries, including to investigate and address Your concerns and monitor and improve Our Service.
To fulfill or meet the reason You provided the information.

If You provide Your Personal Information to purchase a product or service, We will use that information to process Your payment and facilitate delivery.
To respond to law enforcement requests and as required by applicable law, court order, or governmental regulations.
As described to You when collecting Your Personal Information or as otherwise set forth in the CCPA.

If We decide to collect additional categories of personal information or use the Personal Information We collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes We will update this Privacy Notice.

We may use or disclose and may have used or disclosed in the last twelve (12) months the following categories of Personal Information for business or commercial purposes –
Category A : Identifiers
Category B : Personal Information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e))
Category D : Commercial information
Category F : Internet or other similar network activity
Please note that the categories listed above are those defined in the CCPA. This does not mean that all examples of that category of Personal Information were in fact disclosed, but reflects Our good faith belief to the best of Our knowledge that some of that information from the applicable category may be disclosed.
When We disclose Personal Information for a Business purpose or a commercial purpose, We enter a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to both keep that Personal Information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.
4.5 Sale of Personal Information
As defined in the CCPA, “sell” and “sale” mean selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a Consumer’s Personal Information by the Business to a third party for “valuable consideration”, and therefore includes sharing of Personal Data with a third party even with no monetary transaction.
This makes the scope of “sell” extremely broad and, given the uses for Personal Information openly described at 2.4 above, this may bring us under scope of sale and therefore we list the following categories used in CCPA, albeit for value in return only from other third party categories (next section refers).
Category A: Identifiers
Category B: Personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e))
Category D: Commercial information
Category F: Internet or other similar network activity

Third party vendors to whom You or Your agents authorize Us to disclose Your Personal Information in connection with products or services We provide to You
4.7 Sale of Personal Information of minors under 16 years of age
We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from minors under the age of 16 through Our Service, although certain third party websites that we link to may do so. These third-party websites have their own terms of use and privacy policies and we encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and instruct their children to never provide information on other websites without their permission.
We do not sell the Personal Information of Consumers We actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless We receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the Consumer who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a Consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to the sale of Personal Information may opt-out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, You (or Your authorized representative) may submit a request to Us by contacting Us.
If You have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 (or 16) has provided Us with Personal Information, please contact Us with sufficient detail to enable Us to delete that information.
