What safety issues to pay attention to when chatting online

When people frequently use QQ, MSN and other chat tools as communication tools for daily work and life, whether the password, personal data and chat history of the chat tool can be safe has become a crucial issue.

Setting a password should be as complex as possible.

Many users like to use their birthday, ID number, ** number, their own name, etc. as passwords, such a simple password is easy to remember, but its security is very low.

In addition, some users often surf the Internet in public places such as Internet cafes, but the computers of Internet cafes are easy for criminals to install software tools such as keyloggers, resulting in the theft of user passwords.

Therefore, you should pay attention to the complexity of setting a password as much as possible to avoid some numbers that are easy to guess; In addition to numbers, it is best to add some characters to the password. Try to avoid using passwords in Internet cafes, if you have to use them, you can first shuffle the order when entering, and then modify them with "cut", "paste" and other operations, because the keylogger records the actions of the keyboard rather than the mouse, this method can play a "blind" effect.

Set up a local message password.

Most chat software has a message password set. Take QQ as an example, first press the right mouse button, select "System Parameters" from the QQ icon, and select the "Security Settings" tab in "System Parameters". Then select "Enable Local Message Encryption", enter the password in turn, and confirm the password.

At the same time, in order to be safe, be sure to check "Enable local message encryption password prompt", set the prompt question and question answer, and press "OK" to make the setting take effect. After starting QQ input and password, the software will ask you to enter the local message password, otherwise you can't enter.

In addition, since Google Search has enabled the chat history search function of some software, it is important for users to pay attention to the chat history search function must be blocked. Otherwise, your private chats with your friends will be exposed online. At that point, it will be too late to regret it.

Avoid Trojan attacks.

Roaming the Internet today, netizens can find a lot of Trojan software that steals the password of chat tools, but these Trojan software generally only record login passwords with no more than 9 digits of numbers.

In view of this feature, the user selects the "Registration Wizard" when logging in, and adds a long string of 0 before the login number entered in the "Use the existing number", and the number of digits and the original number can be added to more than 9 digits, so that the result is that it does not affect the normal login, and can avoid the secret monitoring of the password by the Trojan software. This can effectively avoid your own theft, thus protecting the security of personal data.

Of course, in order to better protect your personal information and online security, you also need to pay attention to these points, such as installing firewalls, updating anti-virus software in real time, not logging in illegally**, and not clicking on links sent by strangers on the Internet.

Before your child chats online, parents should prompt your child to do the following:

1) Without the consent of parents, do not register your own and your parents' names, **, addresses, online, ** and other information online or tell others.

2) Just as some people use email to spread bad information, there will also be a small number of people who use chat tools to spread boring and harmful public information for their personal illegal purposes. Chat with friends on the Internet, and if you see strange words, **, disgusting language, etc., don't talk anymore and go offline immediately. Remind children to be law-abiding and self-disciplined in online activities, and not to participate in the production and dissemination of harmful and useless information.

3) Don't meet casually and privately with friends you meet online.

4) The time and content of online chats should be agreed with parents and children in advance to avoid unlimited surfing of the Internet.

5) Tell children that the Internet is illusory, although QQ and other chat tools expand the communication of netizens, easy to use, and it is easy to find netizens on the Internet, but we must pay attention to distinguish the difference between the Internet and reality, and avoid being overly addicted to the Internet.

6) When filling in QQ personal information, pay attention to strengthening the awareness of personal protection, so as to avoid unnecessary harassment caused by bad elements to personal life.

1. Use a secure computer.

For personal computers: set the operating system login password and turn on the system firewall; Install anti-virus software and update the virus signature database in a timely manner; Try not to lend your PC.

For public computers: do not log in to your personal account on a computer that does not have anti-virus software installed; Try not to log in to sensitive accounts such as online banking on public computers; Do not store personal data and account information on public computers; Use a soft keyboard to enter your password as much as possible; Before leaving, take care to log out of all logged-in accounts.

2. Use secure software.

Use only genuine software; Turn on the automatic update settings of the operating system and other software, and fix system vulnerabilities and third-party software vulnerabilities in a timely manner; Software obtained through informal channels must be scanned for viruses before operation; Regularly scan the disk for suspicious programs such as viruses; Regularly clean up unknown suspicious plugins and temporary files.

3. Access security**.

Try to visit regular large**; Do not access ** that contains inappropriate information; Requests such as files that pop up unexpectedly or install plugins should be rejected or asked by a professional; Do not believe the information such as "lucky win" published in **, and do not easily send money to unfamiliar accounts; When you receive an email from an unknown source, do not open the address in the attachment or content until you confirm that it is reliable; When shopping online, avoid paying directly to the other party's account before receiving the goods; If malicious intent is found, it should be reported in a timely manner.

You also need to pay attention to safety when chatting online! (1) In addition to Internet communication, IM chat software such as QQ and MSN are also widely used in local area networks, schools, companies and institutions and other internal personnel exchanges. As a tool for information exchange, information security in the process of transmission is particularly important.

However, the information transmission security of QQ and MSN is not satisfactory, and attackers can use sniffing software to obtain all MSNs in use in the same LAN, and what is more dangerous is that all QQ and MSN information content transmitted in the LAN will be completely recorded, and if there is important information or privacy content in the content, the consequences will be unimaginable. Of course, there is a spear and a shield, there is an attack and a defense, we can use third-party software to encrypt the information in the process of QQ and MSN transmission, so that the information can be prevented from being obtained by attackers and improve the security of QQ and MSN information transmission. Example 1:

Google desktop search Sohuai did not find IM chat history. In addition to desktop search, in addition to searching the web and searching for all kinds of files, now it can also search your QQ and MSN chat history, do you believe it? The new version of Google Desktop Search will do just that.

Generally speaking, the birth of a new technology, while bringing people fast and comprehensive search information, also brings a little annoyance to users, if others use this technology, my privacy-chat history will be presented in front of others without any obstruction, and this is what I don't want to see. The author has found out some methods of using this technology to search QQ and MSN chat history, and also found some tricks to block the abuse of this technology on QQ and MSN.

Personally, I think that one is your personal safety, that is, try not to tell strangers your true identity and information, of course, this is not a lie, because you don't know what kind of person Song Shi's answer is on the other side of you.

The second is your safety, the winning information on the Internet is wild, and the shopping information is very much, when some ** let you provide your ID number and bank card password, be careful!

The third is not to indulge in some popular games on the Internet, that is, waste time and spend money!

Friends who often chat online may feel it and enter the chat room. The first is to find the right person to chat with. There are so many people in a chat room, it can be described as a mixture of fish and dragons, and it takes some brains to find the right person.

It's best to look at the information first, such as working men and women, campus feelings, dating antennas, etc., and find a chat room that suits you to enter. Then take a look at each person's QQ profile. Whether a person is true or not, whether he is sincere or not, it can be seen from these materials, for example, some people write their age as 100 years old, 99 years old, 101 years old, 10 years old, etc., and it is better not to make friends with people like this, most of them are self-righteous and want to play tricks on people.

Then there's the question of greetings. Whether or not it can arouse the interest of the other person depends on how to greet him, and ask "you."

Okay", this is a tentative way to say hello, down to find some topics of interest to the other party, many people will ask some age, sedan address, occupation. I don't think this is to say that you can't ask but that you shouldn't ask at the beginning, and don't ask continuously, because it will bore the other person and dislike you from continuing to talk to you. It would be better to ask questions at the appropriate time.

At first, it is best to talk about some attitudes towards life, opinions on certain hot news, etc. If the other person can talk, ask the other person further about their personal situation to increase the topic. �

Of course, it should also be noted that issues related to the privacy of the other party should not be mentioned, which is very polite. Sometimes you can also use the other person's screen name as a topic of conversation, because everyone's screen name has a certain meaning to a certain extent! It can reveal a person's way of thinking, environment, personality traits, hobbies and other information.

In order to analyze the meaning of the other party's screen name, it is natural to turn to discussing life, thoughts, interests, etc., so that the conversation will be very close.

Just pay attention to what you say.

Sincere people have sincere hearts, and those who deceive people are not well-intentioned, just like in life, they are treated sincerely and sincerely, and they are treated with false intentions.

(1) Don't treat online friends as real friends.

When you make a friend online, you tend to say a lot of things to him/her, which is actually quite natural. Because of the distance from netizens, there is no intuitive impression of netizens, and it is easy to involuntarily idealize him (her).

After a long time of interaction with netizens, a sense of dependence will naturally arise psychologically, resulting in an intimate spiritual communication relationship. This relationship helps us a lot when we encounter difficulties in our studies and life.

When we realize that the reason for this kind of spiritual support is the "sense of distance" between us and netizens, we must consciously maintain this distance between netizens and not break it easily, so that the relationship between us and netizens can be friendly for a long time.

However, there is also a characteristic of netizens' language, that is, it is not verifiable.

No matter how correct and logical the netizens say, theoretically, we can't tell whether their words are true or false, whether they are true or just coping with them, and this is unverifiable.

After understanding this, we should clearly understand: netizens are just friends who communicate with our hearts, friends who exchange experiences on our learning, and we have no need and cannot tell them our contacts, addresses, etc. Because, if his or her words are false and the purpose is to deceive people, we may suffer unexpected losses.

2) Selectively tell your online friends about your situation.

After understanding the characteristics of netizens, we should be cautious about revealing our situation to netizens during the online chat.

When chatting online, you must confide in netizens about yourself. But try not to associate with specific locations and places in your life. For example, you can tell the other person that I am in middle school, or you can tell netizens about some things in the school, but there is no need to say the name of your school.

In this way, you can make friends without the danger of being used or deceived.

3) Don't meet up with online friends.

There are two major harms to meeting with netizens. First, the netizens who meet have become ordinary friends in life, the sense of distance has disappeared, and there can be no more spiritual "communication". Second, meeting with netizens is the most "dangerous" thing.

No one dares to guarantee what friends who communicate online are like in real life, coupled with the fact that young students have little social experience, poor ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and very limited self-protection ability, so from the perspective of self-protection, they should not meet with netizens.

First of all, don't have this kind of idea yourself, and don't ask to meet with netizens; Secondly, when netizens make such requests, they must resolutely refuse.

Reply with less thoughts.

One of the most embarrassing things in the process of chatting is chatting about the loss of people. There is a disease called thought reply, when you see a message, you have already replied to the content in your head.

Avoid "um" and "oh" modal words.

When you are very happy to talk a lot to your friend, and the other person replies with an "oh", you feel that your enthusiasm has been poured cold water.

Speak less. The voice function is quite convenient. But it's really inconvenient to send a voice when you encounter an explanation, especially when the surrounding environment is very noisy, you need to listen to the voice several times to hear what the other party is saying.

Send fewer links that ask for likes and **.

There is a saying that people who haven't chatted for many years either like or vote when they find you. Friendship is precious, and frequent consumption of friendship. Friendship will eventually be exhausted, don't let the boat of your friendship turn over in the likes and votes.
