JAKARTA - The higher a person's interest in something, the higher the threat that will arise. For example, recently the developer Avalanche Software recently released the game Hogwarts Legacy.

According to Kaspersky's discovery, before the game was officially released, many cybercriminals had offered game downloads containing malware, which could then steal important information belonging to their victims.

To that end, security expert Kaspersky appealed to remain vigilant and only download games from official app stores, and don't forget to use trusted security solutions.

To avoid becoming a victim of malicious programs and scams, Kaspersky recommends the following:

It's safer to buy and download games only from official sites. Don't trust gift offers like this most expensive new game is a scam. If possible, protect your account with two factors authentication. For others, trace account settings.

Use a strong and unique password for each account. That way, even if one of your accounts is stolen, the rest won't be affected. It's safer not to use the same password for online games that you use for other services.

Use a strong and reliable security solution will really help you, especially if it won't slow down your computer while you're playing. But at the same time, it will protect you from all possible cyber threats.
