This week, we had the opportunity to speak with Shrishail Rana, the Director of Tweaking technologies. We discussed their beginnings, what are some of the worst cyber threats, and how to protect your system from cyberattacks.

Private Internet Access: Please describe the story behind Tweaking Technologies: What sparked the idea, and how has it evolved so far?

Shrishail Rana: Back in the days businesses were localized and used to serve a more stable population. However, with time the way individuals live their lives and use computers has advanced. No more system cleaners alone can do the needful. For complete system optimization and security, advanced tools with different options are the need of the hour. Having this idea in mind, Tweaking Technologies was, and the products it offers are designed. Each software offered by the company focuses on increasing productivity and offers system security and storage optimization. Our users know us for the quality and reliable apps we create and deliver.

Before developing the product, me and my team conduct a survey to understand customer needs and create a blueprint. This helps stay focused and provides solutions that are required by the user. All our software pays attention to system optimization, boosting productivity, simplicity, and customer needs. We stay toe-to-toe with competitors.

PIA: What is the mission of Tweaking Technologies?

But what’s most important is that these solutions must be tested, easy-to-use, and compatible with the latest OS update. This will help users reap the benefits of a product and stay protected from online Threats and fake products. Hence, our focus is to develop products and offer user-friendly solutions accessible from novice to advanced users.

PIA: What are the worst cyber threats out there today?

SR: The technological world today is volatile and cyberattacks happen all the time. One of the dreadful and treacherous threats to data security in recent times is Ransomware. This nasty threat takes over user data and poses a severe risk to user’s data. But none of these threats could be as dangerous as the security loopholes stemmed due to human error and misinformation. Hence it is our responsibility to educate our users about the various risks and how they can be dealt with.

PIA: Why do individuals and companies need a good VPN?

SR: With work from home becoming the new normal, businesses and individuals are being vulnerable to cyberattacks. Therefore, a good VPN with extra security and encryption measures is needed to conceal the information and prevent it from falling into the wrong hands. That’s not to say a VPN should be used when transferring data, hiding digital footprints, and protecting online identity.

PIA: What is the best way for a person to protect their system from cyber threats?

SR: Human error & misinformation are the most common causes for being a victim of cyberattacks. Therefore, to stay protected against cyber-attacks and all types of data breaches – proper training to employees should be imparted, software and system should be updated, endpoint protection should be enabled, and a firewall should be in place. Most importantly, always keep data backed up.
