The Internet has become a fundamental tool for many businesses across the world. There are now over 2,400 million people with access to the World Wide Web, making it an irreplaceable marketing and communication tool.  

As the world advances technically, the chance of hackers gaining unauthorized access to your sensitive data does increase. It is essential to protect your business and your customer base with products, for example an X509 Digital Certificate or the trusted VeriSign stamp, to ensure security and confidence while using your online platforms. 

1.      Invest in an X509 Digital Certificate 

Online hardware no longer starts and ends with the desktop computer or your laptop. Mobile devices are now able to connect to your servers and access data at the tap of an app. An X509 Digital Certificate can be purchased by manufacturers, and embedded into hardware to ensure that only authorized access is granted to named devices. 

2.      Add a SSL Certificate to your Website 

Encrypt any information passed through your website with a SSL Certificate. Show customers and/or clients that your website is trustworthy and can be used without worry. Get the VeriSign seal of approval.

SSL EV is extended verification and offers additional encryption services for businesses who provide ecommerce facilities on their website. Take customer card details in confidence, while buyers will browse safe in the knowledge that they are purchasing goods or services from a trusted retailer. Gain the green address bar, the padlock stamp and the https:// status.

Invest in a Wildcard SSL Certificate and extend your SSL Certificate to cover multiple sub domains on your website, as well as email encryption. 

5.      Follow Basic Data Protection Pathways 

Sometimes it is all too easy to get stuck into the technicalities of business. Ensure that basic data protection pathways are followed – lock away any confidential paperwork and log out of computers following active sessions. 

A Mind Worth Millions: R.I.P, Aaron Swartz

I can sense the deepness of the season, and on my lonely adventure of making a Million € in less than five years I get to find and say Good Bye to a mind worth Millions, digital activist Aaron Swartz was found dead in his New York apartment, an apparent suicide the official statement which is hard to believe considering the deep sense of his words and the pure smile on his face. 

Suicide is always tragic, but especially in someone so young and bright -- he had just turned 26. As has been widely reported, he was facing criminal charges for his efforts to distributing scientific and literary journal articles, and it is likely that the prospect of a long prison sentence and massive fines pushed him over the edge.

It is really sad to lose one of the Internet's greatest minds and hearts, I hope  that we can at least learn something from this tragedy.

Swartz was accused of breaking into MIT’s computer system in order to access academic articles and make them available for free on the Internet.

Before he died last Friday, Swartz, who was a well-known computer programmer — but not an MIT student — faced a 35-year prison sentence on federal data theft charges and a fine of up to $1 million for illegally downloading articles from the subscription-based academic research service JSTOR. 

Swartz allegedly broke into a secure MIT computer closet on at least one occasion and hooked up a laptop in order to download JSTOR files, before he was arrested in 2011 by Cambridge, Mass. police.

Prior to his   for the alleged JSTOR downloads. He had pleaded not guilty. His trial was set to begin next month. Several prominent observers, called the potential penalty disproportionate to the alleged crime.

This could be another conspiracy theory he was involved in many different issues concerning the Internet once he was able to stop SOPA, and then he was foreseeing the network transformation, he was even calm when informed about the distribution of a new cyber attack. 

Well you can make your own conclusions Have a Great one. And Swartz: Rest in Power!!!
