Prevention of Hacking

 Gmail :

We can avoid hacking of our gmail accounts by changing http To https

by Gmail setting->general->browser connection->always use https

This prevents the hacker to get your IP address(usually,hackers can access our mail ids remotely by IP address only)

 

 

One more thing I want to share is ,many times we didn't  logout from gmail account in case of sudden r uninterrupted exception.In thesae cases,there may be chance that our IP address is caught by Hackers by IP Snoofing technique,so better avoid these situations by

click Details (present in gmail bottom)->logout all sessions.This Details contains Activity of our account with browser type,IP  Address,Date/time information

 

Note:Gmail account should be in Standard view to make all these changes
