- 5. Avoid Hackers We must take safety measures to avoid our computer from being hacked One of the many ways is to install a firewall. Firewalls prevent access to our computer from the outside, so that only those that we give permission to can connect to our system from the Internet Another way is to install an antivirus. All our computers should be running the most recent version of an anti-virus program. The program should be set for automatic updates to ensure the latest virus, worm and Trojan definitions.
