How to beware of fraudsters and hackers

The first thing to talk about is the password. Because it's your first line of defense. You need a password and some knowledge to create it. Using strong passwords can strengthen the security of your account. Let's talk about how to do it,

Short passwords are easier to remember, but longer passwords are more secure. 
You should not use your personal information for this.( Eg: Name, Birthday, Phone numbers ) . It reduce your security. Reusing old passwords also reduces your security.

Password creation

  • Pick a few words that are no match.

           Eg: Srilanka House Lion
  • Now delete some of the selected letters in those words.
  • Then replace the removed letters with other symbols.

          Eg: a = 5
                o = %
                i = #

                Sr#l5nk5H%useL#%n
This is a strong password and easy to remember.

What is Cyber Security?

Cyber Security is protecting your personal and private digital data against hackers, fraudsters, or any deviants looking to capitalise on your precious information.

The increasing number of casualties from cybercrime is increasing. It is estimated to be $ 6 trillion by 2021

It can target an organization or even an individual.


If you are a single person,

  • Your bank account details
  • Passwords in social network accounts
  • Your personal information
  • Your Corporate Information
  • Information that could harm you
You have to protect yourself.

If you are an institution,

  • Your company's bank account details
  • Websites and social network passwords
  • Secrets of the Institute
  • Personal Information of Institution Employees
  • Legal information of the institution
Corporate must be protected.


In a survey by Gallup, almost 1 in 4 Americans reported being a cyber criminal.

In another study, The Harris Poll and the American Institute of CPAs, 60% of respondents reported that they or an immediate member of their family were defrauded by online plans.
