One Thing You Should Consider for Your Account Security

Your Account Security

When you open an e-mail, social network, internet banking, shopping or other pages that require you to fill out your account password, it is actually all browsers will store information on your computer.

Each browser uses a different way to store information on your computer, but the same intent and purpose. When you return to the site, browser sends back the information that belong to the site. This allows the site to present you with information customized to fit your needs.

This is what allows your account will be hacked by someone else, by taking the information stored on your computer. So what should you do so that it will not happen to you.

Cookies

Cookie is information stored on your computer by a website you visit. Cookies often store your settings for a website, such as your preferred language or location. When you return to the site, Firefox sends back the cookies that belong to the site.

Cookies can store a wide range of information, including personally identifiable information. However, this information can only be stored if you provide it - websites cannot gain access to information you didn't provide to them, and they can't access other files on your computer. By default, the activities of storing and sending cookies are invisible to you.
