Top 5 Ways to Deter Hackers From Breaking Into Your Web Site

 If you are concerned about hackers wreaking havoc on your site, such as stealing or altering your data or stealing your customer's data, then you'll want to read this article. I'm going to take you through the top 5 ways to deter hackers from breaking into your web site.

Without question, your data is worth a lot of money to hackers. Most sites that fall victim to hackers are not asking for it, but they really do make it easy for thieves to break in and steal whatever they want. Most hackers will go wherever it's easiest to get in, although there are some who pride themselves on getting into highly secure sites as well. Hackers who see a site that is lax when it comes to security know they aren't going to have to waste a lot of time trying to break in. They'll take a few seconds and bingo - their in. This has become a very easy task in recent years, thanks to the proliferation of computer programs that scan the Internet and identify vulnerable sites.

There are several things you can do on top of the standard firewall and anti-virus programs that all computers should have as a base level of protection. The top 5 steps you can take on top of this basic protection include:

1. Use hard to figure out passwords

Never use phone numbers, birth dates, or other easy to figure out passwords. While it's true that many hacker software programs can come up with passwords in many cases, why not make it more difficult by using passwords that contain numbers, letters and symbols? Random passwords will give you the best shot of protection. If you need any kind of information on this article related topic click here: Hire a Phone Hacker

Hackers and Their Methods of Operendi Don't Always Give Them Away

  Often hacker groups methods to pin the crime on someone else. So, let's say you have 160 known hacking groups world-wide, most are loosely affiliated. Plus, you have government and foreign military or cyber-spy commands perhaps adding another 50 or so to the mix, some quite sophisticated. Not long ago, I was reading 150 page research report on cyber security, cyber warfare, hactivists, and criminal hackers. Okay so let's talk for second shall we? One of the chapters in the report suggested that it was easy to tell if a hacking group was part of a state-sponsored cyber command, or just would-be hackers messing around because you could tell by their style and methods.
