Broadband Users - Stop Hacker Attacks With Firewall Software
The popularity of broadband access increases the need for
sophisticated firewall software. Read our short report to see
how firewall software can protect your computer.
Broadband access is also known as high-speed internet access.
The popularity of broadband access is increasing these days. It
is because broadband access is much faster than a dial-up
connection. There is no need of dialing. Consumers can use the
phone line while they are connected to the internet. The
downside is broadband access is more susceptible to hacker
attacks. Therefore, a good firewall program is a must for
broadband users.
Broadband users are more susceptible to hacker attacks because
their internet connection is always on. This is true even when
they do not open the e-mail program and web browser. Broadband
connection usually has a static IP address with unprotected or
"open" ports. Hackers or crackers can locate these unprotected
computers easily using routine port scans.
Once they gain access to the computer, hackers can do different
things. They can install an application in the computer, hijack
the data files,
steal confidential banking and identity data, or
use the computer to hack another computer.
Although many computer users have antivirus and antispyware
software installed, these programs cannot block hacker attacks.
A personal firewall is what broadband users need to protect
their PCs from hackers. It does the job in different ways. A
firewall program masks the IP address, making the computer
invisible on the internet. PC users can use program controls to
allow or deny internet access to programs. Sophisticated
firewall software also have ID lock feature, which prevents
personal information from leaving the computer without
permission. Personal firewall can also block pop-up ads and
cookies and provide other features for overall protection.
