The first test I completed was "Is your computer protected?" I was pleased that I had good ratings, but I learned I need to run regular security checks (the more often the better) and that it is important to back up the files on my computer. Again, you can never be too cautious when it comes to your personal information!
The second test I completed was "Are you protecting your identity?" Due to me not owning a credit card, that alone kept my risk very low for identity theft. I always knew that was important, but now I will give even more thought before applying for one. It isn't worth the risk in most cases. I also learned it is important not to access websites directly through links on an email.
The third test I completed was "Authentic or counterfeit" because I had no clue what it was alluding to. Because I do not buy or sell online, my ratings on this were great! Now knowing what to look for, I will know how to procede with caution if I ever decide to!
This was an awesome website to see how safe you really are and how you can be even more safe/ more cautious. Everyone should do this for their own good!
