Security
Quiz
Thanks to one of my
favorite message board users, Pelican56, I have something truly awesome
for you all today! It's something that every computer user really should
take a look at. So, tell me, do you ever wonder how safe your security
programs really are? I mean, do you sometimes just sit back and worry
about them? What if they're not everything they're cracked up to be? Well,
when it comes to the security of your computer, you really need to be
100 percent sure about your programs. And that's where today's tip comes
into play. Keep reading for all the details!
Security programs
can actually flaw out a lot faster and easier than you may think. If you
don't handle them right or keep them updated, etc., you could run into
some major problems. Well, lucky for us, there's something you can do
to test your security applications to see if there are some areas that
need improvement or if you're good to go. The quiz is available for anyone
to take and it goes through the top 28 attributes of a flawed security
program. As soon as you're done answering the questions, you can look
through your results and determine how your security programs are performing
and so on.
There are three parts
to the quiz with a total of 28 questions. The questions are all in a True/False
(0 being false and 9 being true) format and you can answer them based
on how you feel about your own programs. Now, a lot of the questions are
geared more toward security leaders, but if you want to take the quiz,
you certainly can. Your results may vary though, since it is meant for
larger groups of computers, all using the same programs. If you want to
take the quiz or just read more about it, you can do so here.
Either way, it's really rather interesting. Check it out!
