Like most 40somethings, my knowledge of computers and how to navigate them is sketchy at best, but thank god that Google caters to idiots like me, because going to the search engine and typing in my question is truly the best trick I know, I will never be a coder, never be able to build a website, and I am fascinated by people who can.
They use strings of code to transform a blank screen into anything you can imagine, meanwhile I am typing with 2 fingers and asking my 12 year old son for advice, and don’t even get me started on cybersecurity, I thought that the PC came with antivirus software on it and that was all I needed, boy was I wrong, that is just the bare minimum to keep your computer from getting sick, it stands no chance against any real cybersecurity threat. Hackers have a hundred different ways of attacking you virtually, and the battle between them and cybersecurity experts is a constantly evolving one. Once a new threat is shut down, and server security is tightened, then the hackers will take what they have learned to try something new, but every time a server firewall is enhanced, a hacker is deconstructing the code and figuring out how to break through it. If you just use a proper PC for shopping and looking at memes, perhaps things like data security and risk management don’t apply to you. But if you run your business through a website, you need to take cybersecurity very seriously, or you will be wiped out in short order.
