It's back to school time, and you know what that means! Web research, book reports, and online based
homework assignments. How safe is your
computer? Are you ready for a new school
year? Allow Piccone IT to help you keep
your computer safe while your kiddos complete their assignments.
With quick access to anything and everything on the
internet, it’s important to have the proper security measures in place to
protect your kids and your computer.
Using a high-quality antivirus solution will not only protect your
computer from viruses, malware, and ransomware, but you can also apply content
filtering rules.
Content filtering allows you to block websites based on
their content such as alcohol, gambling, and pornography sites. Setting up content filtering rules will help
make sure your kids can’t access inappropriate sites and adds another layer of
security to your computer because many inappropriate sites also contain malware
and viruses.
Another way to protect your systems is to use a firewall on
your network. Firewalls are devices that
help block attackers from accessing your computers but some also come with
additional features that include content filtering and malware/virus
protection. There are also some options
for controlling when you can access the internet which can come in handy when
you want to limit access to the internet only during certain times of the day
for certain people.

antivirus program is protecting your computer and your kids.
