Know Your Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Partner
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networking is a popular method for sharing files, music, photographs, and other information. But this method can come with its share of major risks. It is better knowing who you are sharing data and files with versus browsing for a site that you believe meets your criteria. Data from unknown sites may be corrupted with malware or expose you to legal ramifications.
