  - Specialists of the Russian Quality System Center for Digital Expertise told about popular misconceptions in the field of digital security. First of all, they dispelled the myth that antiviruses can completely protect the user from cyber threats. Servers of antivirus software suppliers may also be vulnerable and subject to hacker attacks. In addition, it is important what kind of cybersecurity software you choose. Always choose reliable developers with a name and reputation. Do not skimp on security: it is better to get a paid subscription once than to overpay in the future for new software or hardware, the message said.

As emphasized by the experts, complex passwords will also not be able to secure digital accounts. In addition, it should be remembered that all websites use cookies, which are designed to track the user's Internet activity

Experts also explained that the sealed camera of the device will not protect against hacking by cybercriminals. If hackers have hacked the owner's camera, it will not be difficult for them to gain access to everything else that is on your device, the press service of the department reports.
Prior to that, cybersecurity expert Urvan Parfentiev, in an interview with the Vechernaya Moskva newspaper, told how to understand that your personal data was in the public domain and how to protect them.
