What To Do With a Security Breach? – Video

All right, Danny, there’s a security breach. What should I do? Pray? No, I’m joking. Uh, you should, you should first change your password to that account. If you have a similar user name or password for other accounts, change those passwords too. General rule of thumb is you should have a unique password for every account you create online. If that’s too much. Just get a password manager. Freeze your credit with all three bureaus. Experian Equifax and Transunion. You should at least monitor your credit reports. They’re free to access and you should monitor your bank account if you’re too lazy and you just don’t want to do all that. You can consider signing up for identity theft protection. These services cost anywhere from 7 to $15 a month. They monitor the dark web for you. They monitor your social security number so it can be helpful. Thanks.
