Ezikhathini zamanje, ngesikhathi sodlame lwe-coronavirus, abantu kufanele bahlale ekhaya nemindeni yabo kanye nezingane. Ukuhlala ekhaya ngokuvamile kusho ukuchitha isikhathi esiningi usebenzisa amagajethi ahlukene, ikakhulukazi, ukuchitha isikhathi ezinkundleni zokuxhumana. Kusho ukuthi isifiso sokuvuselela i-akhawunti yomuntu siqu ngesithombe sengane singaba namandla nakakhulu. Uma kuziwa ekukhuliseni izingane okudijithali, kunzima ukudweba umugqa ochaza ukwephulwa kwamalungelo ezingane kanye nokubeka engcupheni ukuphepha kwazo kanye nokwabelana okuphephile kwezithombe namavidiyo ukuze kugcinwe izinkumbulo. Kodwa-ke, kunemithetho ethile eyisisekelo okufanele uyilandele ukuze wenze ukuxhumana kwezokuxhumana kuphephe ngangokunokwenzeka.
I-Kaspersky, inkampani yomhlaba wonke ye-cybersecurity, ikhanyise izinselele abazali banamuhla abangabhekana nazo ngenkathi bexhumana endaweni yedijithali, ngokwenza inhlolovo ekhethekile yabazali [1] . Lo mkhankaso ugxile ezicini ezihlukene zobuzali bedijithali okuhlanganisa ukwabelana ngezithombe, izingxoxo ezimayelana nempilo yedijithali yezingane, ubuxhwanguxhwangu be-inthanethi kanye nemiphumela yako, ukusetshenziswa kwamathuluzi okulandelela njenge-geolocation.
Uma sikhuluma ngokwabelana ngezithombe, kuyisihloko esishisayo kakhulu njengoba sivusa izingxoxo eziningi ezishisayo futhi nokuziphatha kwabazali akunangozi kangako. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi u-53% wabantu baseNingizimu Afrika ufaka izithombe zezingane zabo ezinkundleni zokuxhumana (u-32% uzifaka ka-1-2 ngenyanga) kanti u-11% wabo uvumela abantu abangabazi ukuthi bazibone okuletha ubungozi obuthile. Imigomo yokwabelana okunjalo okubanzi iyahlukahluka, kodwa iqiniso elithakazelisayo liwukuthi ngokuvamile, abantu bafuna ukugcina izinkumbulo (56%) futhi bavele bakubheke njengengxenye ebalulekile yokuphila kwabo (27%).
Iyaqhubeka nokuthi u-30% wabazali baseNingizimu Afrika, ababambe iqhaza kulolu cwaningo, uyavuma ukuthi izithombe ezinezingane zithola ukuthandwa nokuphawula okuningi kunalezo ezingenazo.
“Abazali besimanje babhekene nenqwaba yezinselelo ezintsha uma kubhekwa amathuba amasha avelayo. Kunzima ukuhlukanisa phakathi kokwabelana okuphephile kanye nokubeka engcupheni ukuphepha kwengane engozini, nokho, kubalulekile ukubekela eceleni isifiso sokwabelana ngokweqile ngenjongo yokuthandwa, njengoba kungase kube yingozi kakhulu. Ngokocwaningo lukaKaspersky kubazali, u-41% wabazali ubhala igama lengane yabo, kuyilapho u-35% ushicilela ulwazi mayelana nezinto ezithandwa yingane, futhi kuwumkhuba oyingozi impela,” kuchaza uMaher Yamout, uMcwaningi Omkhulu Wezokuphepha eKaspersky.
Ukuvikela idatha yezingane zethu futhi wabelane ngokuphepha, uKaspersky uncoma ngokuqinile ukulandela lesi seluleko:
- Khawulela ukufinyelela kumaphrofayela akho ezinkundla zokuxhumana futhi uwenze abonakale kubangani kuphela (kodwa hlala ukhumbula ukuthi wengeza ohlwini lwabangane abantu obaziyo uqobo). Ungakhohlwa mayelana nezilungiselelo ezijwayelekile zokuphepha ezifana nokuqinisekiswa kwezinto ezimbili kuhlelo lokusebenza lwe-Instagram kanye nephasiwedi evikelekile.
- Ungabelani ngezinto ezingase zidale noma yikuphi ukulimala enganeni yakho - okuhlanganisa izithombe zomuntu siqu namavidiyo, olunye ulwazi olungahloselwe umphakathi - abathintwayo bengane yakho, igama lesikole sabo, njll.
