Here's Kaspersky Tips To Minimize Stress On Social Media

JAKARTA - Since 1992, April has always been commemorated as Stress Awareness Month. The goal is, as a major reminder of the importance of managing stress to maintain the mental and physical health of users.

According to a report from HelpGuide.org entitled Social Media and Health Mental, social media emerged as a significant source of stress, contributing to increased anxiety and stress-related problems among users.

To minimize the negative impact of social networks on digital well-being, Kaspersky experts suggest some simple tips as follows:

Implementation of privacy through account settings

By adjusting who can view profiles and posts, users can significantly reduce the risk of unwanted interactions with strangers who may have bad intentions.

Limit connection

By limiting connections to people known personally, this will reduce the chances of accepting harmful content or dealing with fraudsters. In addition, the use of social networking tools to group friends allows sharing more personally.

Beware of everything

Behind the seemingly harmless links on social media, there is often an undercover phishing scheme to emulate legitimate websites. This scam site is designed to trick users into revealing sensitive information, such as passwords, financial details, and other personal data.

Therefore, it is important to remain vigilant and implement safe online practices, such as verifying the authenticity of websites before entering any information and using comprehensive security solutions.

Use a strong password

Strong and complicated passwords act as the first important defensive line against the threat, helping to protect personal information and digital identity, preventing stress and complications related to the handling of hacked accounts.

Reporting suspicious activity and bullying in cyberspace

By reporting damaging content or cyberbullying, you not only protect yourself, but also contribute to the welfare of the wider community. Such reports allow social media companies to take appropriate action against these accounts.
