The home computer is a popular target for intruders. Intruders look for credit card numbers, bank account information, and anything else they can find. But it’s not just money-related information they’re after. Intruders also want the computer’s resources, meaning hard disk space, fast processor, and Internet connection. They use these resources to attack other computers on the Internet. In fact, the more computers an intruder uses, the harder it is for law enforcement to figure out where the attack is really coming from. If intruders can’t be found, they can’t be stopped, and they can’t be prosecuted.
The Technical Head Mr.Susmit Basu said, “As Home computers are typically not very secure they are easy to break into. No matter how a home computer is connected to the Internet, intruders’ attacks are often successful. Many home computer owners don’t realize that they need to pay attention to computer security. The goal is to keep intruders and their programs off our customer’s computers.”
The MD Mr.M.K.Shah added that “In most cases, the users do not understand the need of security and how the intruders can get into their computers and spoil the game. That they take advantage of a flaw or weakness of one of the computer’s programs to gain access, is not clear to the users.
Thus with the motive of educating their customers and other computer users, to help them take care of their computers Supportonclick has added this service to their list. Removing virus, spyware, speeding up the computer etc. was already there as part of their services. But now they will take full responsibility of the customer’s computer security and also educate them on this topic. Mr. Basu ended the meeting saying “ It should be known to all that securing the home computer is not a trivial task when Supportonclick is a phone call / click away.”
