Data Breaches

 

Awareness:

Data breaches expose sensitive information, including usernames, passwords, and financial details, often leading to identity theft or financial loss.

Solution:

1. Monitor Accounts Regularly:

   • Use services like Have I Been Pwned to check if your data has been compromised.

2. Enable Account Alerts:

   • Set up email or SMS notifications for unusual account activities.

3. Encrypt Sensitive Data:

   • Use tools like BitLocker (Windows) or FileVault (macOS) to encrypt files.

4. Use Unique Passwords for Each Account:

   • Avoid credential overlap to limit the impact of breaches.
