Task 1 - P3
Virus protection and Spyware protection
The director of this organisation should consider the importance of the Anti-virus
available on the market for computer systems they use in their organisation, Ads4U.
The Anti-virus protection software can be installed as software, hardware is not a
requirement for the installation process. Through web downloads the software can work
instantly once legally approved by purchase activation verification and of course
installing the program.
Anti-virus can be helpful when a computer is liable to threats in many different positions,
Trojans, malware, keylogging and internet viruses. The antivirus, as well as scanning the
entire computer hard drive files for threats or threatening viruses can run in the
background keeping your computer running safely and smoothly at all times.
As an organisation, you would definitely want to make this investment as, in the long run
it is more than worth it. The Anti-virus removes all known computer viruses and virtual
threats which are unknown or have unknown sources. This is also effective for web
browsing protection. Intrusion and hacker access can also be detected and ‘moved to
chest’ or deleted entirely. Some Anti-virus software may also include encryption enabling
to protect your data with 256-bit encryption which is in most cases impossible to hack.
Spyware protection is inclusive for this software package. It is endlessly useful as it
protects from potential spyware intrusion. This type of threat is created to track browser
action and user action. This malicious software secretly records what the organisation
employees do on the computer, competitors in the industry may learn techniques or shut
down/corrupt the system, which is why it is important to keep an Anti-virus with spyware
protection programme in the background. Main aims of this type of virus are to steal
passwords or banking & credit card details. I would recommend Avast Anti-virus software
as it is free, reliable and very effective. However, the AVG software will provide a
premium service for its price. Both of these can provide multiple threat protection
services including a high performance spyware protection.
Backup
Backing up data should occur daily for the organisation. This is because of the new data
that is stored on multiple hard drives over time and sometimes when an archived piece
of data is inaccessible, having the backup data can help with clients or with any other
business related files.
In order to back up data the company needs to have hard drives to store the data on, or
cloud storage which may be more efficient. Windows’ backup & restore function allows
you options to back up your computer’s data on the hard drive. The company’s data for
each computer user and the data used can be backed up to an external hard drive which
makes it very easy to restore any settings, data, personal files or media to the computer
system. Through Windows operating system, you are able to schedule the backup of
your files which is useful to the organisation for automatic scheduled backups. The
restore feature takes the windows file containing all the backed up data and restores it to
its full compatibility wherever it fits as well as files and media. Backup software is
included with the Windows operating system as well as many other operating systems.
However, there are premium versions of data backup software that is available.
