Security and confidentiality
Cookies are NOT viruses! They use the form of plain text. They are not composed of parts of codes, so they cannot be executed and nor performed independently. Therefore, they cannot be duplicated or copied to other networks to start or re-copy. Because they cannot perform these functions, they cannot be considered viruses.
Cookies may still be used for negative purposes. Because they store information about preferences, also about the user’s browsing history, both on a particular site and on most other sites, cookies can be used as a form of Spyware (spyware). Many anti-spyware softwares are not aware of this fact and constantly mark cookies to be removed during the removal/scanment/anti-virus/anti-spyware procedures.
Typically, browsers have built-in privacy settings that provide different levels of cookie acceptance, validity period and automatic deletion after the user has visited a site.
Tips for secure and responsible browsing based on cookies.
Thanks to their flexibility and the fact that most of visited and biggest sites use cookies, the latter are almost inevitable. Disabling cookies will not allow the user to access the most common and most used sites, including Youtube, Gmail, Yahoo and others.
Here are a few tips that can provide browsing without care, but with the help of cookies:
– Customize your browser settings about cookies in order to create an appropriate level of protection from the use of cookies:
– If you are not worried about the use of cookies and your only person who uses the computer, you can set longer terms to leak the storage of browsing history and access to personal data;
– If you share access to your computer with someone, you can calculate the browser settings to delete your browsing personal data every time you close your browser. This is the option to access the sites that distribute cookies and to delete any kind of information when visiting when closing the browsing session.
– Install and constantly support anti-spyware applications;
Many of the apps to detect and prevent spyware include detecting attacks on sites. This prevents the browser from accessing sites that could exploit the vulnerability of the browser or download malware.
Make sure your browser is always updated.
Many of the cookie-based attacks are carried out when exploiting the weak points of old and out-of-updated versions of browsers.
Cookies are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you want to enjoy access to the best and largest websites – local and internationally. With a clear understanding of their way of operation and the advantages they carry, you can take the necessary security measures to surf with an assurance on the Internet.
