Making Your Network More Secure 
Protecting the data and programs on your network computers from security threats, 
such as computer viruses and hackers, is very important. The following sections 
provide general information about steps you can take to protect your network.  
Help Protect Your Network from Computer Viruses 
To avoid having a problem with viruses on your network, consider the following 
suggestions: 
O
Install an antivirus program on each computer on your network and use it regularly 
to check your computers for viruses. Remember to update the antivirus program on 
a regular basis. 
O
Learn the common signs of viruses: unusual messages that appear on your screen, 
decreased system performance, missing data, and inability to access your hard 
drive. If you notice any of these problems on your computer, run your antivirus 
program immediately to minimize the chances of losing data.
