Professor Jose Miguel Espinar EducaPoker ‘Camp’ software specialist, offers his advice to strengthen our security.
Recently it has been much talk about security in the poker and the relatively easy it is to be able to access our emails and poker rooms. We all remember the recent case of Corbein and how much they talked about it.
Then try to give some guidelines and tips on what we can do to prevent this from happening and what steps we can take to avoid it.
To create this tutorial I tried to consult security experts on the subject, including “emiliomiguez ‘EducaPoker student and internet safety expert, in his blog you can find several video tutorials on this subject and protected so as efficient.
The first thing I will do is list a series of applications that will help us protect our system. They can be divided into the following categories:
* Antivirus
* Managers passwords
* AntySpyware
* Cleaning Equipment
* Disk Defragmenter
Using at least one from each category will increase our level of protection. In addition to programs that help us, not hurt to take a series of healthy habits in the team we played poker.
Habits poker player
The first is to use Firefox / Chrome instead of Internet Explorer. This is because most of the exploits are for Explorer browser.
Leave it alone will avoid most.
Obviously not download files from sites that are not trusted. Typical pages of movies, games, cracks, etc. are usually full of bugs that if we avoid all the better. Do not enter untrustworthy websites help us a lot to avoid problems.
Do not click on links that distrust, we overcome our curiosity!
In short, having a team just to play poker is the most effective solution to avoid problems.
Now back to the issue of programs that can help us protect our team.
Antivirus
As antivirus we have several options, we can use either a payment or free of charge. Above all, we must avoid any that we have to crack. Let’s not make a virus of our own antivirus.
As the famous free solutions have Avast which works great and also the AVG Free. Chances are that these are sufficient to protect and tend not to conflict with the poker rooms.
In payment we can use the Kaspersky Internet Security and Eset Smart Security.
It is very important to have one of these installed for those pesky bugs stay away from us.
More options available to us, we can analyze any file through this website that uses multiple search engines to keep an eye on that file.
In this website we compare the characteristics of different antivirus, with comparisons made.
Password Managers
These programs will help us keep safe and saved passwords of all the programs we use in our equipment. Charges have Roboform and free or Truecrypt can use KeePass.
Emilio Miguez in his blog gives us a series of video tutorials on these programs and how to use them correctly, as well as some tips when creating passwords.
Video Tutorials:
* Truecrypt
* KeePass
* KeePass 2
AntiSpyware
These programs will protect us from unwanted observers. Spyware is a spyware is installed on our team no signs of life to be gathering information about our data and passwords.
To protect ourselves from these programs usually avoid the antivirus program can use the following:
* Super Anty Spyware, with free and paid version. We will have more than enough with the first.
* Spy bot S
