How to secure my internet connection

Internet has the advantage of being able to reach all users of all systems. Indeed, all you need is a well-known browser and any plugins for anyone to access the net, even from a mobile device.
The Internet is a constantly evolving universe. To surf, it is necessary to keep abreast of what is being done. Those who thought Macs, Android devices and tamper-proof smartphones might be surprised. On Android, it's better to avoid downloading anything and everything. On Facebook, avoid using all apps
The threats on the Internet are still a little different from those that can be found physically on your computer.
They mainly concern everything related to the privacy of Internet users.
Few risks therefore to see all our files disappear after visiting a site.

On the other hand the numbers of blue cards transit, the passwords and in general all the data which one transmits since our keyboard.

Recommendations concerning websites:

Before any purchase, and even before writing anything that concerns us, we must check these points:
Is the site really the one I think? I'll talk about it in an article about phishing, there may be a fake website that looks exactly like a legitimate website.
The website address (or URL) can not be the same, so check that when you connect to Facebook if there is 
http (s): //www.facebook.com and not on http: / www. facebok.com who nevertheless would have the same look but would not be facebook. More and more websites are now leaving a small note before purchasing something to verify the URL before submitting the form.
In the same way, you can check the presence of the "s" before http in the URL when you want to make a so-called secure transaction. the https protocol will encrypt the data transmitted between your pc and the server, in order to make any interception of this data unnecessary.
Regarding PCs cybercafés, libraries and especially friends, be sure that the pc on which you are isn't infected!
In the same way, you can and must disconnect from all the websites to which you have previously connected. Never check the box Remember my password on a pc that is not yours.
Install ad blockers if you are overwhelmed by pop-up ads.
Install extensions like WOT to help you detect illegitimate websites.
Last point regarding the vulnerabilities of browsers or websites and other vicious exploitations:
Security vulnerabilities can be found in your browser or more often in the websites you visit. You can not do anything, you can just keep a critical mind on all the abnormal things that can happen. That is, all suspicious behavior against your personal data, such as sudden requests for card number confirmations.

Regarding the vulnerabilities of add-ons like Java DriveBy, here again keep your anti-virus up to date and check the veracity of the website by means of add-ons like Web Of Trust.
