Security Experts Say You Should Never Make This One Mistake When Browsing The Internet

It’s something that you do several times a day, but you probably never knew how risky some of your behaviors can be. We’re talk about browsing the internet, a seemingly innocent action that can put your security at risk if you’re committing a few common online atrocities. Hackers are always ready to kick down the door to your data, but sometimes without knowing it you’re leaving that door wide open. Security experts say you should never make this one mistake when browsing the internet.

Among the mistakes that people make while browsing the internet, there is one that poses the greatest threat to our safety, according to Marcin Gwizdala, head of technology at Tidio. “I’m talking about using the same password for different websites,” Gwizdala says. “The password basically secures everything you own, including credit card numbers, addresses, and documents. That’s why using the same password across all platforms is the biggest mistake.”

Using one passwords makes you a prime target for hackers, Gwizdala says, because all it takes is to guess your one password, and they can access everything you do online. “No matter how annoying it can be to remember each different and strong password, trust me, it’s very important – nothing is more valuable than your identity and personal information,” Gwizdala says.

And there’s one more major browsing mistake you should avoid making.
