Traditional antivirus software is designed to prevent, search, detect and eliminate viruses and other known malicious programmes. That is, it compares the information on your files with the information in their database. If the antivirus software finds a file that corresponds to one in its database, it will try to delete or quarantine it immediately, preventing it from causing damage to your device.

📄️ What is an operating system?

Operating systems are programmes that allow you to interact with your device's hardware.

📄️ Why should you update your Internet browsers?

As with operating systems, browser developers sometimes detect security flaws or vulnerabilities in these programmes. To fix these bugs and protect users, developers release browser updates on an ongoing basis. Most browsers update automatically. However, if your browser does not update automatically, it can leave you unprotected against cybercriminals.

📄️ Why should you update your apps?

As with operating systems, application developers sometimes detect security flaws or vulnerabilities in their applications. To fix these bugs and protect users, developers release application updates frequently. If you use outdated applications, you may be unprotected against cybercriminals.

📄️ What is device encryption?

Device encryption converts the data to an encoded format that can only be decoded with an encryption key (such as a password). Before saving the data to disk, the device encrypts the data so that it cannot be read by people without the key. Many operating systems offer data encryption, but it usually needs to be enabled. Please follow the instructions in our "List of actions" to find out how to enable device encryption depending on the operating system you have.
