Just as you wouldn’t ignore a health check, you shouldn’t ignore your antivirus software. It’s the health check for your computer, keeping it safe from the digital viruses that lurk in the corners of the internet. But how do you know if your antivirus is doing its job?
Checking Your Antivirus: The Green Tick of Approval
Just like a green tick on a health app, your antivirus software should show a green tick or similar symbol to indicate it’s protecting your system. It should also be receiving regular updates to keep up with the latest threats. It’s like updating your medical knowledge – you wouldn’t want your doctor to be using outdated information, would you?
License to Protect: Your Antivirus Passport
Your antivirus software should also have a valid license. It’s like a passport for your software, allowing it to do its job effectively. If your license is about to expire, it’s time to renew it.
“Password Protection: The Digital Lock on Your Door”
Just as you wouldn’t leave your front door unlocked, you shouldn’t leave your antivirus unprotected. Make sure your antivirus settings are password protected. This prevents anyone from disabling your antivirus or changing your settings without your knowledge. It’s like having a lock on your door – it keeps the unwanted guests out.
