Do not rely on any content presented in a misleading way

Malicious files that carry trojan or ransomware payloads are disguised in a comprehensive manner. If the infected file is launched, well-programmed malware runs in the background and performs multiple performances to evade detection and prolong the prevalence.

However, people should think of how to evade Trojan attacks in the first place instead of contemplating on how to get rid of them. The biggest piece of advice is to keep a powerful security software installed on the system. Updating it and installing its virus definitions continuously is a key to a virus-free machine.

  2. Stay away from suspicious email messages that contain attachments. If you consider it to be non-malicious, though trying to open it required enabling macros, it's a sign of a possible virus attack;
  3. Do not download pirated software. If possible, rely on legitimate download sources all the time;
  4. Ignore hyperlinks that occur on random websites or social media platforms;
  5. Do not click on popups saying that you need to update software, etc.

In general, ignore any suspicious online content as it may be scripted by hackers. Visit reliable websites and think twice before downloading any software.

How to prevent from getting trojans

Protect your privacy – employ a VPN

There are several ways how to make your online time more private – you can access an incognito tab. However, there is no secret that even in this mode, you are tracked for advertising purposes. There is a way to add an extra layer of protection and create a completely anonymous web browsing practice with the help of Private Internet Access VPN. This software reroutes traffic through different servers, thus leaving your IP address and geolocation in disguise. Besides, it is based on a strict no-log policy, meaning that no data will be recorded, leaked, and available for both first and third parties. The combination of a secure web browser and Private Internet Access VPN will let you browse the Internet without a feeling of being spied or targeted by criminals. 

No backups? No problem. Use a data recovery tool

If you wonder how data loss can occur, you should not look any further for answers – human errors, malware attacks, hardware failures, power cuts, natural disasters, or even simple negligence. In some cases, lost files are extremely important, and many straight out panic when such an unfortunate course of events happen. Due to this, you should always ensure that you prepare proper data backups on a regular basis.

If you were caught by surprise and did not have any backups to restore your files from, not everything is lost. Data Recovery Pro is one of the leading file recovery solutions you can find on the market – it is likely to restore even lost emails or data located on an external device.
