You may be too preoccupied with identity theft to realise that your IP address is just as vulnerable. Also referred to as Internet Protocol address, this series of numbers is not random, it represents your online identity, and it being hacked into can cause a lot of damage.

Hacking your IP address isn’t like gaining access to your online accounts, and it doesn’t give access to your passwords. What it does do, however, is to allow a hacker to use your address as a baseline for illegal activities.  It may be anything from tracking your location with malicious intent, to using your address to upload or even access unauthorised online content, and even directly attacking your network and causing a network failure.

These are only a few of the thing’s hackers can do with your IP address, which is why it is crucial to ensure you protect it at all times.  Now there are several ways to safeguard your Internet Protocol address, one of which is to ensure you buy your private proxies from instant proxies. Other than that, here are a couple of tips you can use to keep your IP address from people with malicious intent:

Virtual private networks

While many individuals and small enterprises consider VPNs as an unnecessary expense, it is worth noting that this is the single most effective way to secure your network from unauthorised access. Virtual Private Networks are characterised by access control, user authorisation protocols and a list of other key features that ensure anyone within the network has the authorization to be there. Regarding your IP address, VPNs hide your original identity, your location and your details, making it close to impossible for someone to pinpoint your location.

The course devised by UK counter-terrorism officers and experts was previously only open to company staff working in crowded places such as shopping centres.  Counter Terrorism Policing is inviting people to take the course and become so-called CT Citizens.  Police said the move was not in response to the London Bridge attack.   The National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) said the 29 November incident, which left two people dead, was a "stark reminder" of the "ongoing threat and the need for vigilance".  Called ACT Awareness, the training comprises seven modules and takes 45 minutes to complete.

The programme was originally devised in partnership with retail giant Marks and Spencer – and participants needed to be signed up by their employers. Today the online learning is available free of charge to anyone who wants to take part.

Users are asked to give details including an email and home address in order to register for the course. Registration can then take up to seven days to complete, according to the website, here is the web site: https://ct.highfieldelearning.com/
