Book Description:
Rely on this practical, end-to-end manual on cybersecurity and privacy written specifically to get a non-technical audience. You’ll have just what you want to protect yourself step by step, without judgment, and with as little jargon as possible. Exactly how safe is your computer at this time? You most likely don’t understand. Computers and the Internet have revolutionized the contemporary world, but in case you are like most people, you don’t have any clue how these things work and do not know the actual dangers.
Protecting your personal computer is like defending a medieval castle. While moats, walls, drawbridges, and castle guards can be effective, you would go bankrupt trying to build something dragon-proof. This book isn’t about protecting yourself from a targeted assault by the NSA; it is all about arming yourself against ordinary hackers and mass surveillance. There are scores of no-brainer items we should be doing to protect our computers and safeguard our data–just like wearing a seat belt, installing smoke alarms, and placing sunscreen.
