Are your data or programs at risk? If you answer "yes" to any of the following questions, you have a potential security risk.

Risk does not mean you should stop using computers. You are at risk of being hit by a falling meteorite or of being robbed by a thief on the street, but you do not hide in a fortified underground bunker all day. You learn what puts you at risk and how to control it. Controlling a risk is not the same as eliminating it; you simply want to bring it to a tolerable level. How do you control the risk of computer security?
