Beverly Hills, California, United States - 09-20-2021 (PR Distribution™) - 
People of all ages rely heavily on technology making online security even more critical. Cell phones, computers, and iPads can all be at risk, especially children's devices, as they often do not fully understand the implications of a cyber-attack. The transition from the home back to in-school learning can bring further potential risks.
Sharad Varia CEO of CMIT Solutions West LA-Beverly Hills warns of some of the most common pitfalls, "I always tell my kids to never give out personal information; if it doesn't seem right, it's probably not right," said Varia. "The easiest and number one thing we should all be doing to be safe online is to make sure we are locking devices when not using them."
There has been a massive increase in the theft of personal information, and it's being used immorally. An email may look legitimate, but CMIT Solutions Beverly Hills advises parents to teach their kids to think twice before they click, and not respond to personal questions. "Even though many children may not have a bank account yet their parents most certainly do. Just tell your kids not to respond to personal questions or to give away their passwords to anyone, ever! Also, stay alert to cyberbullying, make sure you have good, open communication with them, so you see the signs early."
Another issue to watch out for is app default settings. For instance, Venmo default settings default display who you have paid and who has paid you. This can seem harmless, but this is how expert hackers can make connections.
Online safety is becoming more vital in protecting our children's sensitive data. As technology remains at the forefront of all our lives, Varia is dedicated to staying one step ahead of the ever-changing dangers. CMIT does this by monitoring its clients computers and systems 24 x 7 x 365. This proactive management system immediately identifies any devices on its clients network that is experiencing an issue, backs up the data safely and securely, and prevents cyber security problems before they happen.
Varia has reigned as one of India’s leading internet providers for the past twenty two years. His company BlazeNet was one of the first private internet service providers in India and he is famed for his work developing it to become one of the biggest providers in the country. Not only is BlazeNet one of India’s leading Internet providers, but it has also evolved as a prevalent IT business solutions company.
