- Keep your operating system patched and up-to-date to ensure you have fewer vulnerabilities to exploit.
- Don’t install software or give it administrative privileges unless you know exactly what it is and what it does.
- Install antivirus software which detects malicious programs like ransomware as they arrive and whitelisting software which prevents unauthorized applications from executing in the first place.
- And of course back up your files frequently and automatically! That won’t stop a malware attack but it can make the damage caused by one much less significant.
