Computer Security Day: 30th November

The 30th of November each year is known as Computer Security Day. Check out the facts and the most infamous viruses over the past 25 years.

It was started in 1988 to help raise the awareness of computer related security issues. Although keeping your computer safe with an anti-virus and a firewall seems simple enough, you’d be surprised at just how many people get infected with viruses each year!

Since the very first computer virus, “Creeper”, wrote in the 1970’s (Which simply displayed the message: “I’m the creeper, catch me if you can!”), they have grown in size, are more complex, and not all of them are as harmless.
