With the advancement of technology, the methods of telecom fraud have become more sophisticated and difficult to prevent. Recently, telecom fraudsters have begun to use AI face-swapping technology to impersonate other people's identities by forging ** and audio. In the face of this new type of fraud, experts remind the public that they can identify it by asking the other party to press their nose to observe and identify. However, this alone is not enough to fully protect against telecom fraud, and we need to pay attention to more cybersecurity considerations.
First of all, we need to be vigilant and not easily trust strangers' ** or information. When receiving strange ** or suspicious messages, stay calm and don't trust the other person's words and promises. If the other party claims to be a representative of an institution or company, the other party can be asked to provide relevant proof and identity verification. If the other party makes a request for transfer, remittance, etc., it must be handled carefully to ensure that you will not be deceived.
Second, we need to protect personal information. Don't sign up for an account, fill in personal information, or upload an unreliable app or app. At the same time, change your passwords regularly and avoid using overly simple passwords or reusing the same password. In addition, do not disclose personal information to strangers, such as name, address, ** number, bank card number, etc.
Third, we need to be cautious** and use apps. When it comes to apps, choose a regular app store and avoid apps that don't know what to do. When installing applications, read the permission requirements carefully and avoid granting unnecessary permissions. When using the app, take care to protect your privacy and account security.
Fourth, we need to be wary of phishing attacks. Phishing attacks are attacks that induce users to click on malicious links or malware by sending fake emails or messages to gain user information or steal property. When you receive a suspicious email or message, do not click on the link or attachment at will, and carefully verify the identity and information of the other party.
Fifth, we need to back up important data regularly. In the event of a telecom fraud or other cybersecurity incident, backing up data can help us recover from losses quickly before they can cause a greater impact. Therefore, we need to regularly back up important data in mobile phones, computers and other devices to ensure data security.
In addition to the above points, there are a few other cybersecurity considerations to be aware of. For example, avoid using public wireless networks, which can be a security risk; When using public computers or other devices, pay attention to protect your privacy and account security; When handling sensitive information, it is necessary to use encryption technology to protect data security, etc.
In conclusion, we need to be vigilant and cautious at all times in the face of telecom fraud and cybersecurity threats. By being vigilant, protecting your personal information, being cautious** and using apps, being vigilant against phishing attacks, and backing up important data regularly, we can better protect against telecom fraud and cybersecurity. At the same time, we should also actively learn cyber security knowledge and enhance our cyber security awareness and skills to deal with ever-changing cyber security threats.
