Computers have become a major security risk. There are hundreds of thousands of viruses, spyware, and other hacker tools floating around the Internet waiting to contaminate computers. Unfortunately, computers are not built to withstand the onslaught of these bugs and the millions of criminals around the world looking for opportunities to commit crime. Approximately 80% to 90% of all problems people have with their computers are a direct result of security breaches. These growing problems are a huge trend that everyone can easily see and understand. PC problems are driving demand for expert computer services.

The internet has become a very silent, efficient, and sometimes deadly tool for sinister desperados to prey on innocent and unsuspecting victims. A Utah-based website aims to solve this problem by offering people protection by arming them with three things: knowledge, a community of like-minded people, and tools that are designed to combat the dark side of the internet.

Organized crime has taken over a significant portion of the Internet, and its success affects every user of the Internet in some way. The growth of criminal “botnets” has been nothing less than phenomenal. In 2005, Red Herring, the technology business journal, reported that an average of 172,000 PCs were hijacked and added to botnets daily. Hackers are invading reputable websites, lacing them with tools that visitors unwittingly download. Google researchers recently said that at least one in 10 web pages is booby-trapped with malware. Secure Computing says that more than 10,000 websites are being infected every single day.

So regardless of who you are, the range of crimes emerging from the internet is very large and you can be affected. The Online Security Authority Network (http://www.onlinesecurityauthority.net/) was created to combat as many of these crimes by creating an information website that covers a wide range of topics related to online security.

Online Security Authority has just recently partnered with a major internet security provider, to bring to you a all in one Online Security Authority solution: Managed PC Care in the only service of it’s kind in the world today to provide a hassle free computer experience.
