Dallas Computer Repair Urges Shoring-up Security

PCVDs' Dallas computer repair is asking all personal PC users to shore-up their computer security by ensuring all anti-viruses are updated along with firewalls running the latest updates as several security articles emerge.

TechNewsWorld reports that utility companies using smart meters to monitor energy distribution across the U.S. electrical grid are continuing to depend on internet smart meters to determine where the energy distribution should take place on the grid. The lack of security in the system has had the ire of lawmakers and security experts. The problem appears, as PDVDs' Dallas Computer Repair is that the energy providers are not adequately securing and monitoring their own systems to prevent hacking and energy disruption.

Another news story that broke about Twitter was that they were hit with a Denial of Service (DoS), by Russians upset over a Georgia blogger, that also affected Facebook's individual users along with Facebook businesses.

Another blog by Dallas Laptop Repair also reports security problems this week that PCVDs' Dallas Computer Repair urges attention be given.
