Data Acquisition Systems Bring Peace Of Mind

Data Acquisition Systems Bring Peace Of Mind

Have you just got a warning message from your anti-virus about a possible Trojan horse. Yikes! For those of you out of the loop, a Trojan horse is a computer program which seems to be doing one thing, but is actually doing another. Meaning, it can be used, by hackers mostly, to set up a back door in a computer system such that they can gain access later. Of course the name is in reference to the horse used by the Greeks in the Trojan War, and the virus has the similar function of deceiving defenders into bringing an intruder inside. Once a computer is compromised and that the hacker has obtained "root" or systems privileges, pray that you have sufficient data acquisition systems at your disposal.

Here are some necessary steps to take if you see one of those scary messages regarding a Trojan horse. First, update your anti-virus software. Next, run a system scan to identify the wicked virus and then delete it. It will be living in some unimportant file somewhere. Look for random files or jpegs. Or, you could do a "control-alt-delete" and see what may be running without your knowledge. You'll want to end that program then carefully find it among your programs, and then delete it. If you're receiving Trojan horse warnings often, you should really reconsider what you're doing online. Do you do a lot of file sharing? If you need to reveal personal information or use your computer for online banking, be careful! Someone could be watching and waiting. Lucky for you if you have data acquisition systems such as a firewall or antivirus software set up.

The main way to avoid the mess of having to recover lost data is to perform regular backups. Basic computer maintenance includes weekly backups. You can run an incremental backup daily, which is a backup that backs up only the files modified since the last backup. It's also beneficial if you keep a copy of your data offsite. Enter data acquisition systems. The primary usage of these systems is to process your data. Basically, critical information is obtained and stored digitally in an offsite computer processor, but you will want to check in with your service provider to see how to perform data recovery if needed. My final recommendation is to get a great IT guy. He's like a paramedic for computers and won't mind your frantic 911 calls at midnight.
