To save your precious time
1. Use 2 factor authentication
2. Dont use same password everywhere
3. Update the software on your computer
4. Be careful with how much info you post online
5. Be careful when sharing personal info
Thumbs up to help others see
yup
You forgot VPNs, Tor, and HTTPS Everywhere
Cosmic Gam3r yup I was going to post that but I’m glad I see you did hope everyone can see what you mentioned and use those things .
Finally. No waste my datas
yea
Well my grandma doesn't have internet or a phone/computer or a bank account, and she's never been hacked. Sounds good to me. She must be a tech genius.
She's a genius, you should follow her footstep instead.
@@evildragon1774 dont worry, well finish up with the veteran soon enough for her
hell yea me just cash money
Lol you will not operate in this society like that she can because she is retired
Thinking it the best way. I'm going to trash my phone if I dont manage to undo the hacks on my phone. One of them is Queryallpackages etc.
I thought Rami Malek was a former NSA hacker. 😂
Same 😂
Pffff
No, Freddie Mercury from Queen was a former NSA hacker.
Bonjour Elliot 😆
sameee lmao
Important to note- don’t use your phone number as a 2fa for your email(s). This is how hackers sim-swap your phone.
I remember when we were teens, my friend was a computer geek and everyone knew but sometimes someone would make fun of him and he would tell them that he'll hack them. They would stop immediately.
ip does nothing except a ddos attack unless you have an old windows with a zero day
Why you lying man. Learn to lie. Even lying requires skill.
Yup.
Apparently there are ways to track one's browsing history even when using search engines such as duckduckgo.
@@finnjakdmore2027 when a person gets hacked the first thing you should do is contact the Secret Service as that is one of their areas of Investigation .
Life was simpler before the internet
Kinda
It's the other way around
Better*
Too simple to be honest, dare to dream

@NIHAL No I'm Serious !
Facebook is terrible for privacy, but not that bad ito security
Facebook is ugly. Wannabe LinkedIn. It's for grandma's searching for old neighbors & uglys that don't take good pictures.
Friendproject.net looks like original Myspace but they don't have an app or video chat
@@damiangames1204 don't put your personal info anywhere you dope
He missed a few things. Don't take pictures of personal information. Some apps require access to your gallery, and pictures can be saved on to servers god who knows where.
Don't use your real name for online profiles, like TH-cam, Facebook. Use alias, or characters from your favorite show, video game whatever
So true about the pics of ID cards
so y i want a computer for i could hide i can do that an thy still find me an you to no bull shit
I swear I love you!
The SMS 2-factor authentication can also be broken.
I remember a video Linus posted a while back (1-2 years ago) where he had one or more accounts hacked.
The hacker basically went into his carrier's store, pretended to be him and requested a replacement SIM card which not only helped at 2-factor authentication, but also changing the passwords in the first place. Quite clever.
Yeah. Use Google Authenticator/Authy.
"pretended to be him" They didn't ask for the attacker's ID before they "replace" the SIM card?
Is there anything we can do to prevent that?
Use a hardware key.
@@themedlebmy id was stolen.
Very important as the guy says, when you receive any notification just open your web browser yourself and log into your account to see if you have any message, etc.
Never use the link provided in the email.
A question is always striking my mind. Can a phone get hacked by receiving call from suspected number?
Yes.
How can it be possible to skip a video having Rami Malek as it's gracious thumbnail ! 😍
I’m still waiting for the free pizza for life offer I was promised for sharing my credit card info on an email 😒
@M P 🤣🤣
@M P 😂👍

@M P it is all fun and games until someone actually puts their info on here. XD

No ! Heckerman 😂
Check My Playlist, I saw your playlist. It’s filled with meeeeeeemes.
The meme is long deceased let it rest in piss (RIP)
Tip 1: don't make yourself a target... A LOT of hackers are motivated by religion or politics... So don't comment or write about this and you'll stay under the radar... simple as that
I love this clip bec it is BRIEF yet very informative with NEW info not heard elsewhere.
You haven't seen my channel
very well explained thumbs up sir. Thanks for the tips
That scam is so hilarious. They did that to me. It sounded weird when they called so I said I’ll have to end the phone call and call them back. They said that would be weird to do that when they already can help me. I hung up. Called the company and they have no information on why they would call.
Every beginner should watch this video. And yeah, I also say that you need to use 2 factor authentication on every platform you have.
Considering that the NSA has more security leaks than Windows 1.0, the NSA is the last people I would listen to about security.
If the goal of the NSA is to look stupid, then mission accomplished.
Well to be fair, they get leaks also from being such a large target.
It is not enough. It can be bypassed too.

Now i can protect myself from hackers in gta v
leave the server
moi moi 2 leave the server and play on ps4. The system and servers there have stronger security than xbox and pc
thenewking X yeah !
i kid you not someone threatened to hack me on a game i think it was call of duty cant remember how the argument started if you play online you know how it is and sometimes people in lobbys just dont get along and argue with other players for the most stupid things lol we was arguing he threatened to hack my pc i was like yeah whatever bring it on a week later i was browsing steam looking at sales and a little chat box suddenly opened on my pc i couldnt click off it was username admin started chatting saying they had control of my pc he was moving my mouse pointer and started telling me my personal information my name address and my real life friends and online friends who live in usa and australia giving me information you cant just look up they would had to go through my things to know that much detail i unplugged my pc straight away wiped my hard drive had to reinstall everything. if someone threatons to hack you even if its a child i would take it very seriously make sure your security is all upto date and get as far away from that user as quickly as possible and report them most of the time they will be lying when they say they will hack you but its a small chance that they aint either way dont risk it stay safe and protect yourself online. its not a nice feeling knowing someone has breached your privacy and been going through your personal things i wouldnt wish it on anyone.
@@evildeed90s im going to hack you
jk lol
Everything and anything connected to the internet can be and will be hacked!!

Connection is power *connects fork to power outlet* Gets Lightning Elemental Fork +400 ATK and +300 DEF
Avoid all IoT bullshit and you are more protected. Also the key to your network protection is to secure your router - use stronger password, control the traffic on your router, adjust firewall settings etc. It is a bit more advanced stuff but you never know how the next attack can be perpetrated. If you have something valuable to lose then it is better to be safe than sorry. Prefer direct cable connections to Wi-Fi ones. Since technical protection measures are quite good hackers usually prefer to go the social engineering route which is 90% more effective hacking technique than brute forcing a technical one.
Black Wigga good advice there
Black Wigga yup great advice
Five easy ways to protect from hackers, first don't rely on the internet for every single thing,
@Mark Leonardo thats why the comment was done, dont rely reduce the threat
This is very important. Thanks for the reminder. 👍😁
Why he didn't mentioned Linux even 1 time ? 🤔
that's so amazing !!
I can surf securely now, thanks for this amazing advices that i've never ever found elsewhere !
seriously that's so basic, blah blah blah ,i'm sure this gonna be helpfull for granny or for people whom doesn't understand what is internet and how it's working
There are even lot of ways that one could get hacked.
Social Engineering is one of the most potent ways. Consider subscribing to my channel as I discuss all these and online safety
This opens you up to sim switching so effectively
I'm starting to see a trend on FB now, whereas they ASK YOU to send THEM a friend request, when usually they send you the friend request.
Apparently they found a way to bypass 2 step authentication, the highest security for yourself possibly you can do is to encore the security system itself
Here's some REAL advice:
1. Use Linux. Even better, enable SELinux and Multi-level Security. If you do not want this to be on your main PC, set this up on another PC as a firewall
2. Use a VPN (paid or not doesn't really matter unless you're privacy conscious)
3. Use SSH keys instead of passwords when possible. Avoid password managers.
4. Add _nomap to the end of your router's SSID (stops google maps from tracking your IP)
5. Use Tor. If you're on Linux, make sure that your repositories are being updated/upgraded through the Tor network
Quick and to the point. 👍
My FBI agent being paranoid watching me watching this video:
AM I NOT ENOUGH FOR YOUR DAMN PROTECTION!!!!!!
Don't let this distract you that the GOVERNMENT can view anything of yours 😊 companies work with them
Except me under my blankets doing something without a device made from them
Thr264 s 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
MY LIFE IS A MEME MY LIFE IS PATHETIC i want help so i don't care who sees
So they can see me watching porn? Im OnLY 7 iM In BiG tRoUBLe
CEASE YOUR INVESTIGATION
He forgot the most important option to keep private/important data absolutely safe.
OFFLINE WORKSTATION.
Have an computer which is not and never will connect to the net. The best hackers of the world, nor the NSA can hack a computer they don't know exists and is physically unable to connect to the web (unless they have access to the actual computer).
Very Precise, Thank You!
just added the two factor verification by seeing rhis vid.. thank you for reminding.
Honestly, I thought he is going to tell us how to stop government from accessing our personal information. Avoid being hacked by an identity theft is much easier than government.
Number 2 could have been improved by suggesting a password manager so you have a different and strong password for each service you use. (OSX and iOS come with a built in one, don't know about other platforms).
Yea but if your iCloud is compromised, they have your password keychain
Good pointers - also you can add when available use VPN, as it encrypts your data flow between the device and the data providers. Also use privacy add-ons for when using the browsers.
How do we know that VPNs are not mining our data?
That face of regret @ the end, tho
I'm also a hacker, but they call me a lumberjack.
Hey
I have thought about this. When you are online programs/cookies/spyware track everything you do there is almost no way around this unless you stop going online. What would happen if you created a program that spammed randomly generated fake information (like non-flaggable sentences) online in google searches for instance to make 99% of everything on your profile fake. How would these programs be able to determine whats fake and what's real? I mean companies collect as much information about peoples habits as they can to create an accurate profile on that person, to know them inside and out would they still be able to do that if you fed that process with fake stuff? Granted doing this would definitely flag you for suspicious behavior sooner or later but it would be an interesting thing to experiment with, anonymity by information overload.
My smartphone automatically synced with my husbands new truck once (I didn't even know my new smartphone at the time had the ability to do that). He had already synched his smartphone with his truck weeks earlier. Anyway, it completely screwed with his smartphone. He was getting youtube suggestions for romance & mystery thriller audiobooks, meditation music, hardcore irish metal trap mix and paper mache recipes for months afterwards 🤣. I have since turned off the autosynch option on my smartphone, but it really made me think about how easily that little option can be exploited to really screw up a lot of peoples devices & their sensitive info on them.
Thank you sir
Do you need to update all apps on your phone. Or just the ones you use?
I love mr.robot
It's really just a terrible show :O
Don't we all?
🤔....oh LMFAO.... buzzed
Mrs robot is better
Shit is real!
He's not wearing the hoodie
*He's not a real hacker*
END HIM!!
Bro his laptop doesn't have neon green text, I do not trust this man.
But they just own there personal hackers so be normal sir
i wear hoodies all the time i think a lot of hackers and pentesters do because we spend so much time inside and sitting down and we're insecure about our pale bodies
Because he is from NSA
Thank you
im still using Windows 95 with Netscape 4.0
hohohohohhahahahahoho so funny!!!!
Old school is simple.
**nostalgia**
"Just send me location"
This is fascinating!
Thank you so much
a hacker posted this
The list should really be like this:
1. Don't use facebook
2. Always use a good GNU/Linux distribution, never malware like Windows or MacOS
3. Don't use a smartphone
4. Use 2 factor authentication
5. Don't use same password everywhere
6. Update the software on your computer
7. Be careful when sharing personal info
thanks for the information...
thank you
why would i trust a hacker?
Xbarnie exactly, especially he doesn't specify himself as white hat. Suspicious eh?
Cuz he retired?
Cause he's right. Those steps help you not them: two factor authentication, calling the company before relying to a phishing message improve your condition not hacker's
Alessandro Zanardi thats how they want you to think to make them easier accessing your info, you need to authorize twice, one to actually login and twice is to grant them access. Stay awake people you're all brainwashed.
Akhyar Rayhka what did you just say? lol
a real hacker never reveals his identity
Χριστινάκι Χρι A real hacker. he is a real hacker He reveals it Maybe because He work with fbi now.
Yeah, that's the first rule of hacking.
Edit: /s
He's a white hat, those hackers can reveal their identity because they didn't do anything illegal
Hes national security agent...
An Malicious or black hat hacker.
An Ethical or white hat hacker can reveal his/her identity
Thank for sharing of an informative ways techniques to take care our account
Thanks sir❤❤❤.
But sir, how can you stay up-to-date on Windows when you know that when you update it'll just be an update full of crap? Ehm-...*coughs* FOCUS ASSIST.
its easy
step 1:delete all of your social media accounts
step:2throw away all of your gadgets
BcA sorry hehe
Thanks for information..
You got no internet you won't get hack. Ez
Today’s world everyone has internet. Even my poor bus driver has internet he doesn’t know English, I asked him you have internet he told, in today’s world no one can live without internet
Wrong, honey...
Linux ?
?
?
?
Which certification is in high demand
This dude seems chill. I wanna play video games with him.
We don't need Top 5. We need top 200
Then consider subscribing to my channel. I divided the top 200 to different videos
I just watch TH-cam that's it
Thanks
How about a call from Nigeria? He seems so honest.
Wow 3 comments I'm here early
He said that doing so makes them more harder to hack😂😂😂
what if I have 2 factor authentication and I lost my phone ...
@@musthavechannel5262 change the password...then you can change the verification number.
I have this discussed on my channel
ok..thaks for information
Good Information, thanks for your Knlowledge to how save from hecker.
1:30 *laughs in Linux, its also very usefull for security
We linux user couldn't be prouder
“Former” NSA agent hacker giving advice on how to avoid being hacked by government.. I think I’ll look at another video just in case
Thanks you
Thanks Kereennnn
following a hacker what to do probably isnt the best idea..
Demonitized hes obviously a white hat
ok guys! nothing is free, no one gives away shitt keep that in mind, and most importantly dont fill forums especially online that asks account pin no. and stuff, like it will be in a series of question and we dont, you know get to notice that question and gets habituated to write it.
But there is free stuff just look at the free stuff on the streets
Thr264 s sorry me in india, very poor. Nothing is free, there are plastic vegetables used in curry and reused, plastic cabbage, milk made from shampoo and oil, egg and rice made from plastic c adulterations in food etc here if u go after that red hard free candy you might endup in an omini van, MNC corporations, corrupt political leaders 4th grafe failures tied with religions that blinds and brainwash people. Too much stuff i could write a phd lvl stuff heh... Sadly.
But Linux is free and it runs the world
Brandon N. Never used, common people like me don't know a lot besides poor people like me, stuck with a 10 yr old dusty laptop, with illegitimate windows 7 that is not at all updated can't do much :c
vinoop wilson true but if you're using Android you're still using Linux albeit the bastardized version of it and if you use a website or any non-windows powered machine that's smarter than the average toaster it'll probably use Linux too.
Thank you for this info❣️

all of these things are true
Don't trust a government
Get tips from hackers? What is this oxymoron video? You should get tips from strangers you met on darkweb.
thanks for your information,👍👍👍
Great post..
you forgot to mention that if a hacker has physical access to your machine he will be able to hack it in less than 4 minutes by hacking I mean remotely full control of your machine.
I have 64 characters in my password and I remember it
So I take it 2FA finally got around to being fixed?
What if you got sim swapped, 2fa is out the window no?
Video starts at 0:30
if your daddy rich and affraid technology, use Mac and Windows. if you not affraid of technology, use Linux instead!
Andik Kurniawan and if you're a masochist who enjoys eternal suffering use gentoo
+Brandon N. Don't try to take that away from arch.
eh try using gentoo for a day tell me what it's like having to wait for a DE to compile.
You can use the same password for things you don't really care about, but use special passwords for the important things like main email, and bank accounts.
Very interesting video!
Good Info Thank You
These tips were completely decent, apart from the fact they don't mention VPN.
Though I would have liked them to be a bit more... sophisticated. I shouldn't have, as a I have worked in IT security as an intern, but still...
thank for information
Very helpful information.

This is so helpful
