PC security means protecting your computer from viruses, malware, and hackers who might try to steal your personal information. It’s important because without it, your data, files, and even your identity can be at risk. Keeping your PC secure ensures your information stays safe and your computer runs smoothly.
Common signs of a hacked or infected computer include slow performance, pop-up ads, unexpected crashes, or programs opening on their own. If you notice anything unusual or if your antivirus software flags something suspicious, it’s time to take action by running a full scan or getting help from a professional.
Antivirus software is a program that detects and removes viruses and other harmful threats from your computer. Yes, you absolutely need it! It acts as a protective shield, catching and eliminating threats before they can harm your system or steal your data.
If you suspect your computer is infected, start by running a full antivirus scan to detect and remove any threats. If the problem persists, disconnect your computer from the internet to prevent further damage and contact us for help. It’s important to act quickly to avoid any potential data loss.
