Protect Personal Information | Rhyno Cybersecurity

Protecting your personal information can help reduce your risk of identity theft. There are four main ways to do it: know who you share information with; store and dispose of your personal information securely, especially your Social Security number; ask questions before deciding to share your personal information; and maintain appropriate security on your computers and other electronic devices.

Personal information is used by many businesses for legitimate communication. However, this is not always the case and some personal information can be misused by criminals or used inappropriately by marketers.

So let’s learn 5 ways to Protect Personal Information!

5 Smart Ways to Protect Personal Information!

 

1. Put passwords on your devices.

Cell phones, laptops, and tablets are easily lost or stolen. If you don’t require a password to log in, then a thief has instant access to all your data.

 

2. Set up two-factor authentication on your financial and email accounts.

Your bank probably requires this already—when you log in from a new location, you must type in a code that’s texted to your cell phone. Check your account settings to make sure this is enabled on all your accounts.

 

3. Don’t do your online shopping and banking at the local cafe.

When you use a shared computer or a business’s WiFi connection, you don’t know how secure the network really is. Use your own device and secure network instead.

 

4. Update your software regularly.

This includes antivirus software, your operating system, and anything else you use. Cyber threats change frequently, and many updates address security issues.

 

5. Be careful about opening email attachments or clicking links.

Either of these actions can infect your computer with malware.

You don’t have to be an IT expert to protect your personal data. Just be cautious when communicating or shopping online, and set up some simple security measures to protect yourself in the event your personal data is breached.
