Waxaan mararka qaarkood ka qornaa maqaallo ku saabsan apps-yada ugu fiican ee bilaashka ah kuwaas oo samayn kara shay gaar ah si aad u wanaagsan ama ku saabsan ciyaaraha ugu fiican. Mid ka mid ah shay aan ka baranay markii aan qoraynay nuxurka noocaas ah ayaa ah inaadan aad uga taxaddarin markaad baareyso oo aad rakibayso software cusub, gaar ahaan apps iyo ciyaaraha bilaashka ah. Maqaalkan, waxaan u isticmaali doonaa khibradan si aan u aragno khataraha ay software-ka cusub ee aan la garanayn ku keeni karaan nidaamkaaga, iyo hababka aad u isticmaali karto si aad u yarayso. Waxaan u ogaanay ku-socodka khatarahaan inay tahay il-furan, waxaana rajaynaynaa, waayo-aragnimadayadu waxay ku caawin doonaan khibradahaaga inaad u hesho abka iyo ciyaaraha ugu fiican adiga:

Si aan kaaga caawino inaad fahanto khataraha laxidhiidha software-ka bilaashka ah ee aad ka soo dajisato interneedka, waxaanu ku abuurnay mishiinka farsamada gacanta ee Windows 10 ka dibna waxaanu bilownay inaanu soo dejino oo aanu rakibno dhamaan noocyada abka bilaashka ah ee ilaha sharciga ah ee qof kastaa ka heli karo online. Waa kuwan waxa software-ka bilaashka ah ku xidhi karo haddii aanad fiiro gaar ah u yeelan iyo sida aad ammaan ugu ahaan lahayd:

1. Ka digtoonow rakibidda biraawsarka aaladaha iyo kordhinta; xataa kuwa wanaagsan ayaa kuu xumaan kara

Qalabyada hadhsan iyo kordhintu waxay xadin karaan macluumaadkaaga, xitaa kuwa wanaagsani si dhakhso ah ayey u ururin karaan oo ay u qasi karaan daalacashadaada shabakada, haddii aadan taxaddarin. Lahaanshaha hal ama laba qalab, iyo laba balaadhinta browserka ayaa laga yaabaa inay faa'iido u leedahay haddii ay tahay mashiinka raadinta ee aad horey u isticmaashay wax badan, sida Google ama Bing , ama laga yaabee haddii ay ku siiso qol ammaan ah. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, in ka badan dhowr iyo shaashaddaada, processor-kaaga, iyo xusuustaadu ma sii ahaan doonaan sidii ay ahaan jireen. Badanaa^(Often), apps lacag la'aana waxay isku dayaan inay ku rakibaan qalabyada shabakadaha aadan waligaa isticmaalin ama browser-ka kordhinta ee sameeya waxyaabo aadan u baahnayn. Ugu dambeyntii, waxaa laga yaabaa inaad la kulanto xaalad uu browserkaagu u baahan yahay daqiiqado halkii ilbiriqsi si uu ugu shubo mareegaha aad jeceshahay, ama xaaladaha aad ku aragto qalabyo ka badan mareegaha dhabta ah. Sawirka hoose waxaad ku arki kartaa sida uu u ekaa Google Chrome ka dib markii aanu rakibnay xidhmo badan oo qalab iyo kordhin ah. ^{(Google Chrome)}Bal qiyaas waxa: waxaan ka soo dejinay oo ku rakibnay dhammaantood si toos ah Dukaanka Shabakadda Chrome^{(Chrome Web Store)} .

Waxay noqon lahayd wax lagu qoslo haddii aysan tani ahayn dhibaato caadi ah in badan oo naga mid ah waa inaan hagaajinno markaan booqanno qaraabada iyo asxaabta.

Software-yada kale ee bilaashka ah, sida shaashadaha, waxay kugu qasbi karaan ama ku khiyaami karaan inaad aqbasho inaad rakibto aaladaha iyo kordhinta aadan u baahnayn. Inta badan^(Often) , software waa lacag la'aan sababtoo ah isticmaalayaasha waxaa lagu maalgeliyaa iyaga oo simbiriirixanaya aaladda ama kordhinta wax iibsiga ee habka rakibidda. Akhri waxa aad galayso, oo iska hubi inaad iska saarto ama diido wax kasta oo loo soo bandhigo aaladaha ama browserka lagu daro. Caadi ahaan, aqbalida aaladaha ama kordhinta waa doorashada caadiga ah inta lagu jiro habka rakibidda, markaa waa inaad taxaddartaa oo aad iska saartaa wax kasta oo aadan u baahnayn.

Qaar ka mid ah abka bilaashka ah ayaa si toos ah kugu qasbi doona inaad aqbasho aaladda. Hubi^(Make) inaad rabto xirmada oo dhan ka hor inta aanad aqbalin sababtoo ah mararka qaarkood qalabkan iyo kordhinta waxay noqon kartaa mid adag in laga takhaluso, marka la rakibo.

2. Maya ku dheh software aadan u baahnayn, apps aadan waligaa maqlin, iyo soo jeedinta khaaska ah ee la isku daray

Qalabyada ka sokow, waxa kale oo jira noocyo kale oo software ah oo si kale loo bixiyo ama lagu qasbay marka la rakibayo apps iyo ciyaaraha bilaashka ah. Foomka caadiga ah waa "saaxiib" software ah, sida saaxiibkayaga hoose, kaas oo loogu talagalay inuu kaa caawiyo isticmaalka kombuyuutarkaaga. Halka BonziBUDDY -ga caanka ah laftiisa uu maqan yahay, ku dayashada ayaa weli ah oo ku saabsan si isku mid ah mashquulinta. Inta badan^(Often) , kuwani waxay u qaadan doonaan qaab soo jiidasho leh oo aan dhar-xidhnayn gabadh ama nin. Sida BonziBUDDY , barnaamijyadani waxay u badan tahay inay ku jiraan malware.

Nooc kale oo ka mid ah software-ka aan la rabin waa browser-yada (mararka qaarkood kuwa been abuurka ah), kuwaas oo si fudud loo beddeli karo oo ay ku jiraan qayb aan la rabin oo shaqeynaysa oo qabta wax aadan rabin, sida la socoshada dhaqdhaqaaqaaga ama xaddo macluumaadkaaga shakhsiyeed. Haddii aad rabto browser cusub, aad bay u badbaado badan tahay inaad si toos ah u tagto isha (mareegta abuurkeeda) oo aad isticmaasho browser-ka caanka ah. Ku dheji^(Stick) daalacashada sida weyn loo yaqaan Google Chrome , Mozilla Firefox , Microsoft Edge , Opera ama Vivaldi .

Dhowr nooc oo software tijaabo ah ayaa sidoo kale inta badan la bixiyaa. Kuwaas waxaa ka mid ah apps-ka qaan-gaarka ah iyo/ama ciyaaraha laga yaabo inay u baahdaan iibsi dheeraad ah si ay u sii wadaan ciyaarta.

Qaar ka mid ah abka waxaa laga yaabaa inay ku jiraan dalabyo gaar ah oo loogu talagalay "xalalka amniga". Doorashadan dambe waxay si gaar ah khatar u ahaan kartaa in la rakibo, gaar ahaan haddii aad horeba u lahayd ammaan kale. Lahaanshaha laba xal oo amniga ah, oo leh astaamo isku mid ah oo la soo bandhigay, waxay u horseedi kartaa isku dhacyo iyo shilalka kombiyuutarka. Si^(Just) la mid ah browser-yada, waxa fiican in la sameeyo doorasho xog ogaal ah oo laga soo dejiyo oo lagu rakibo xalalka amniga boggooda rasmiga ah, intii la isticmaali lahaa waxa la socda software kale.

Ugu dambeyntii, software-yada qaarkood ayaa laga yaabaa inay ku weydiiyaan ama ay kaa rabaan inaad u saxiixdo iimaylkaaga spam (kuma sheegi doonaan inay spam tahay), beddelaan bogga internetka ee biraawsarkaaga shabakadooda, ama xitaa iibso xayeysiisyo kale si aad ugu raaxaysato alaabta bilaashka ah. Caveat emptor.

3. Iska hubi fayruus kasta, trojans, iyo adware

Tani waa mid kale oo ka mid ah dhibaatooyinkaas oo khatar ku noqon kara soo dejin kasta oo app cusub. Lahaanshaha software antivirus adag kombayutarkaaga waa arin waajib ah, waxaanan kugula talineynaa inaad baadho taxanahayada Amniga ee Qof kasta si aad u baarto midka adiga kugu habboon.

Si kastaba ha ahaatee, lakabka ilaalinta dheeraadka ah, waxaad sidoo kale iskaan kartaa fayl kasta oo aad soo dejiso ka hor intaadan rakibin si aad u aragto inta ay le'eg tahay khatarta uu leeyahay. Sida aan tan u sameyno waa in aan isticmaalno adeeg yar oo shabakad ah oo la yiraahdo Virus Total . Waxaad tagtaa shabakadooda oo aad gelisaa fayl oo aad baarto ka hor intaadan rakibin.

Adeeggu wuxuu markaa kuu sheegayaa haddii matoorada fayraska ee kala duwan ay wax ka khaldan yihiin.

Waxa kale oo ay ku siinaysaa ikhtiyaarka aad uga tagto faallooyinka iyo faahfaahinta isticmaalayaasha kale ee ku saabsan faylka. Haddii aad doonayso inaad ka faa'iidaysato doorashadan, hubi inaad samaysato akoon leh Virus Total , marka hore.

Digniin ahaan, haddii dhowr fayrus-ka-hortayaal ah oo yar oo caan ah ay ka helayaan wax laga shakiyo faylka, wali waa OK in la isticmaalo. Hubi^(Make) inaad hubiso sumcadda ka hortag kasta oo calaamad u ah faylka inuu yahay mid laga shakisan yahay. Haddii ay tahay mid ka sumcad badan sida Bitdefender , ESET , Kaspersky , ama F-Secure, waa inaad dabcan ku kalsoon tahay. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, haddii kaliya antivirus-yada sumcadda hooseeya ay bixinayaan digniino, waxay si fudud u noqon kartaa digniin been ah.

4. Xitaa haddii aad soo dejiso software bilaash ah oo aad taqaan, laba jeer hubi ka hor intaadan rakibin

Inkasta oo laga yaabo inaad ka fogaato software-ka bilaashka ah ee aan la garanayn, weli kuma filna inaad ammaan noqoto. Xitaa qaar ka mid ah codsiyada bilaashka ah ee caanka ah waxay noqon karaan khatar. Tusaalaha ugu wanaagsan ee software-ka noocaas ah waa CCleaner , oo ah aalad ay adeegsadaan dad badan oo adduunka oo dhan ah, si ay u nadiifiyaan oo ay u wanaajiyaan kombuyuutarkooda Windows . CCleaner waligeed kama mid noqon barnaamijyada ku rakiba waxyaabaha aadan rabin kombayutarkaga. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, wakhti aan fogayn, Sebtember 13th^{(September 13th)} , 2017, ayaa la ogaaday in nooca C Cleaner 5.33, oo ahaa kii ugu dambeeyay ee wakhtigaas, uu sidoo kale ku daray koodh xaasidnimo ah nidaamyada Windows ee lagu rakibay.

Si aad uga dhigto mid la yaab leh, CCleaner waxaa soo saaray Pi riform , oo ah shirkad ay iibsatay Avast , oo sameeyay fayraska caanka ah ee bilaashka ah ee isla magaca. Waxaa jira macluumaad dheeraad ah oo ku saabsan Tom's Hardware website-ka haddii aad rabto: Avast oo aan la aqoon oo ku xiran Malware oo leh CCleaner Ku dhawaad ​​Bil^{(Avast Unknowingly Bundled Malware With CCleaner For Almost A Month)} .

Akhlaaqda sheekadu waa in xitaa software-ka ka yimaada kuwa horumariya ee hore u ahaan jiray mid la aamini karo aan si buuxda loo aamini karin. Waa inaad ku sawirtaa antivirus wanaagsan ama VirusTotal isla marka aad ka soo dejiso kombiyuutarkaaga.

Gabagabo

Talooyinkani waa inay noqdaan kuwo waxtar leh haddii lagu dabaqo abka ama ciyaaraha aan la garanayn gaar ahaan noocyada bilaashka ah. Ma jiro 100% badbaado leh, laakiin sabir iyo tallaabooyin taxaddar leh, waxaad yarayn kartaa khataraha. Nala soo socodsii haddii aad leedahay wax khiyaano ah oo adiga kuu gaar ah, si aad u ilaaliso kombayutaradaada ammaan marka aad tijaabinayso barnaamijyada cusub, gaar ahaan kuwa bilaashka ah.

How to avoid the risks and dangers of downloading free apps and games from the web

We sometimes write articles about thе best free apps that cаn do a cеrtain thing very well or about the best games. One thing that we learnеd while writing such сontent is thаt уou cannot be too careful when you are reѕearching and installing new software, and especially free apps and games. In this article, we are going to use this experience to see which are the risks that new unknown software can pose to your system, and the methods that you cаn use to minimize them. We found navigatіng these risks to bе eye-opening, and hоpefully, our experіences will be helpful fоr your adventures in finding the best apps and games for you:

To help you understand the risks associated with free software that you download from the internet, we created a virtual machine with Windows 10 and then we started to download and install all kinds of free apps from legitimate sources that anyone can find online. Here is what free software can bundle if you do not pay attention and how to stay safe:

1. Be wary about installing browser toolbars and extensions; even the good ones can be bad for you

Shady toolbars and extensions can steal your information, and even the good ones can pile up quickly and clutter your web browsers, if you are not careful. Having one or two toolbars, and a couple of browser extensions might be useful if it is for a search engine you already use a lot, like Google or Bing, or maybe if it is provided to you by a security suite. However, more than a few and your screen, processor, and memory will no longer be what they used to. Often, free apps attempt to install toolbars from websites you have rarely ever used or browser extensions that do things you do not need. Eventually, you could be facing a situation where your web browser needs minutes instead of seconds to load your favorite websites, or situations in which you see more toolbars than actual websites. In the screenshot below you can see what our Google Chrome looked like after we installed a bunch of toolbars and extensions. And guess what: we downloaded and installed all of them straight from the Chrome Web Store.

It would be funny if this were not a common problem many of us have to fix when we visit relatives and friends.

Other free software, like screensavers, can either force or trick you into accepting to install toolbars and extensions that you do not need. Often, software is free because users are monetized by slipping a toolbar or shopping extension into the installation process. Read what you are getting into, and make sure to uncheck or decline any offers for toolbars or browser add-ons. Usually, accepting a toolbar or extension is the default choice during the installation process, so you have to be careful and uncheck everything you do not need.

Some free apps will outright force you to accept a toolbar. Make sure that you want the whole package before you accept it because sometimes these toolbars and extensions can be difficult to get rid of, once they have been installed.

2. Say no to software you do not need, to apps you never heard of, and to special offers that are bundled together

Besides toolbars, there are also other kinds of software that are alternatively offered or forced when installing free apps and games. A common form is a software "buddy," like our friend below, who was meant to help you use your computer... but was more intrusive and distracting than anything else. While the infamous BonziBUDDY is itself gone, imitations remain and are about as equally distracting. Often, these will take the form of an attractive and scantily-clad girl or guy. Like the BonziBUDDY, these programs are likely to contain malware.

Another type of unwanted software is browsers (sometimes fake ones), which can easily be modified and include an unwanted piece of functionality that does something you do not want, like monitor your activity or steal your personal information. If you did want a new browser, it is much safer to go directly to the source (its creator's website) and use a well known browser. Stick to browsers that are widely known like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Opera or Vivaldi.

Several varieties of trial software are also often offered. These include adult apps and/or games which may require an additional purchase to continue playing.

Some other apps may include special offers for "security solutions". This latter option can be particularly risky to install, especially if you already have other security in place. Having two security solutions in place, with the same kind of features being offered, can lead to conflicts and computer crashes. Just like with browsers, it is better to make an informed choice and download and install security solutions from their official webpage, instead of using what comes bundled with other software.

Finally, some software may ask or require you to sign your email up for spam (they will not tell you it is spam though), change your browser's homepage to their website, or even buy into other promotions to enjoy the product for free. Caveat emptor.

3. Check for any viruses, trojans, and adware

This is another one of those problems that can be a risk with any new app download. Having robust antivirus software on your computer is a must for this, and we recommend you browse our Security for Everyone series to research which would be best for you.

However, for an added layer of protection, you can also scan each file you download before you install it to see how much of a risk it is. The way we do this is by using a handy little web service called Virus Total. You go to their website and upload a file and have it analyzed before you install it.

The service then tells you if different antivirus engines found anything wrong with it.

It also gives you the option to leave comments and details for other users about the file. If you are going to make use of this option, be sure to set up an account with Virus Total, first.

As a warning, if only a few lesser known anti-viruses are finding something suspicious in a file, it still might be OK to use. Make sure to check the reputations of any antivirus that marks a file as suspicious. If it is a more reputable one like Bitdefender, ESET, Kaspersky, or F-Secure, you should of course trust it. However, if only antiviruses of low reputation are giving warnings, it could easily be a false alarm.

4. Even if you download a free software that you know, double-check it before you install it

Although you might stay away from unknown free software, it is still not enough to be safe. Even some free applications that are popular can become a risk. An excellent example of such software is CCleaner, a tool that is used by many people all around the world, to clean and optimize their Windows computers. CCleaner has never been one of those programs that install unwanted things on your computer. However, not long ago, on September 13th, 2017, it was discovered that CCleaner version 5.33, which was the latest at that time, also added malicious code on the Windows systems on which it was installed.

To make it even more ironic, CCleaner is developed by Piriform, a company which has been bought by Avast, the maker of the popular free antivirus bearing the same name. There is more information on Tom's Hardware website if you want it: Avast Unknowingly Bundled Malware With CCleaner For Almost A Month.

The moral of the story is that even software that comes from developers that used to be trustworthy cannot be fully trusted. You should scan it with a good antivirus or with VirusTotal as soon as you have downloaded it on your computer.

Conclusion

These tips should be helpful if applied to any unknown app or game and especially to free versions. Nothing is 100% safe, but with some patience and precaution measures, you can minimize the risks. Let us know if you have any tricks of your own, for keeping your computers secure while testing out new programs, especially free ones.
