The internet is becoming more pervasive in our everyday lives. Most of us use the internet as part of our job, children use it in schools, an increasing number of banks, merchants, utility companies, and healthcare providers offer completely paperless transactions that rely on secure accounts and emails. With the increase in our daily online activities, we are at risk of falling victim to any number of web-based hazards like worms, viruses, ransomware, phishing, malware and other scams. Whether we realize it or not, the need for awareness and protection from these dangers is necessary.
