# इंटरनेटवर सुरक्षित राहणे

A possible reason for why you are using Linux is the robust security that it is known for. One reason that Linux is relatively safe from malware and viruses is due to the lower number of people who use it. Viruses are targeted at popular operating systems, like Windows, that have an extremely large user base. Linux is also very secure due to its open source nature, which allows experts to modify and enhance the security features included with each distribution.

Linuxचे इंस्टॉलेशन सुरक्षित राहेल, याची खात्री घेण्याकरिता, नेहमी असुरक्षा असतात. इंटननेटवरील वापरकर्ता म्हणजून तुम्ही तरीही संवेदनाक्षम असू शकतात:

फिशि स्कॅम्स (संकेतस्थळ आणि ईमेल्स जे कपट माध्यमाने संवेदनशील माहिती प्राप्त करायचा प्रयत्न करतात)

मत्सरी इमेल पाठवणे

दुर्भावना (व्हायरस) सह ॲप्लिकेशन्स

Unauthorized remote/local network access

ऑनलाइन सुरक्षित राहण्यासाठी, या काही टीपा लक्षात ठेवा:

अनोळख्या व्यक्तिंकडून पाठवलेली ईमेल, संलग्नक, किंवा दुवे यापासून सावध रहा.

If a website’s offer is too good to be true, or asks for sensitive information that seems unnecessary, then think twice about what information you are submitting and the potential consequences if that information is compromised by identity thieves or other criminals.

Be careful in providing root level permissions to any application, especially ones that you have not used before or which are not well-known. Providing anyone or anything with root level permissions puts your computer at high risk to exploitation.

Make sure you are only running necessary remote-access services. Having SSH or RDP running can be useful, but also leaves your computer open to intrusion if not secured properly. Consider using a firewall to help protect your computer from intrusion.
