PC Scientist · Ryde · Cybersecurity help
Your mother rings from her place in Gladesville. Her tablet says her account is locked and wants her bank card to unlock it. She has already typed half of it in. In Ryde, calls like that often come from grown children trying to help from across town.
PC Scientist checks the tablet and computer she uses, secures her email and bank logins, and sets things up so warnings like that are easier to spot next time. Book an eligible visit online, or request a call back if you want to talk first.

Cybersecurity help · Ryde
Many Ryde calls are made on behalf of a parent. We can talk with both of you, visit the house, and leave her with fewer passwords to juggle and a short note she can keep near the computer.
We call on parents in Gladesville and Hunters Hill, family homes around Epping, Eastwood and West Ryde, and small teams in Macquarie Park. If a bank login needs changing tonight, we can begin over the phone or remotely, then visit to clean the tablet or computer properly.
Why Cybersecurity help calls us
Start here
Choose this page when a message, caller or warning has left someone worried about money or accounts. If a computer is only slow, computer support is the better first step.
A locked-account message, a cold call about the computer, or a sign-in alert that made no sense.
We gently go over what was tapped, typed or allowed, before any setting is changed.
Fake warning pages, remote tools left by callers, and unwanted programs removed carefully.
Email, bank and tablet accounts get new passwords and two-step codes sent to the right phone.
A handful of plain warning signs the whole family can share, instead of costly scary software.

FAQ
Yes. Many visits around Ryde, Gladesville and Hunters Hill are booked by a son or daughter who lives elsewhere. We can call you before and after so you know what was done.
Your parent stays in charge of what happens, and nothing is changed without their agreement.
Ring the bank on the number on her card and ask them to stop it. That part cannot wait.
Then call PC Scientist. We check the tablet, reset the account password from a safe device, and turn on sign-in codes so a fake message cannot unlock anything again.
Not always. For some people it is easier than remembering dozens of passwords. For others, a well-kept paper book stored at home works better.
We look at how your parent actually uses the computer and set up whichever approach they will stick with.
The price goes to you or your parent before we start. One tablet or computer is a simple quote, and a few devices share one figure.
When an infected machine cannot be cleaned, No Fix, No Repair Fee applies to that repair attempt.
