Cybersecurity refers to any technologies, practices, and policies for preventing cyberattacks or mitigating their impact. The purpose is to protect computer systems, applications, devices, data, financial assets, and people against ransomware and other malware, phishing scams, data theft, and other cyber threats.
Unfortunately, cyberattacks become more sophisticated daily, and the evildoers are relentless in their pursuit. Whether for fun or financial gain, they do find systems to infiltrate so it is important to protect your information.
If you believe your credit has been impacted by a data breach, or simply want to monitor and protect your credit, we recommend the following resources:
- Here’s What You Should Do After a Data Breach - Experian
- Data breach information for taxpayers | Internal Revenue Service
- LifeLock Official Site | Identity Theft Protection
Unfortunately, some of these services can cost money unless a company has offered free monitoring following a data breach which is fairly common.
