Networking for all



   
When surfing the web, are you aware of the dangers around you digitally ??!


    Nowadays, Internet is no longer just about e-mail and Web sites. 
The net has become the critical medium, powering a growing list of revenue-generating business activities from e-commerce and e-supply chain management to online marketplaces and collaboration. The sum of all these activities can acquire the term Web Services.

Years it took to reach a market audience of 50 million:
Radio 38 years                           * TV 13 years
* Internet 4 years                         * iPod 3 years
* Facebook 2 years

    In fact, the number of internet devices in 1984 was 1,000. Moreover, in 1992 was 1,000,000. And now a days it is 1,000,000,000  and more. Did you know that the amount of new technical information is doubling every 2 years?




The video above shows the journey of our personal information through a secure connection to a web site .

    When you access the internet, you are likely to be asked for our personal information. You could fill your personal information in a profile, form, or an account. These information has to be secured. You do not want your information fallen in to the wrong hands. It has to be received safely.

    When you open a new account in Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo!, Hotmail  or any others  you will absolutely be asked for your name,location, phone number, photo,elc. How would you be sure that the data you entered wont be intercepted or changed by the third party??!

    If you want to make sure that when your information is secured,  first you should make sure that when you are entering information, it says https in the URL at the top of your web browser. If it only says http, then it isn't secure. The s stands for secure. Moreover, make sure that there is a padlock next to the URL. And if the URL is highlighted in green that's especially OK!

  3. People should be careful in that cause as long as internet is so useful it could harm us indirectly, especially when its not secured. so maybe we should let people know in any other way or if they don't care they we should show them how serious the problems are that they could face later.
