'The worst thing you can do' after a data breach, according to a cybersecurity expert
In the aftermath of a data breach, companies often make critical mistakes that can worsen the damage. This article highlights expert insights on what the number one biggest mistake to avoid is, and what you should do instead. Read the article to learn what it is and reach out to JCMR Technology for strategies to strengthen your cybersecurity resilience.
What should I do after a data breach?
It's crucial not to ignore the notification. Read the details to understand what information was compromised and how to protect yourself. Change your passwords for the affected site and any others where you use the same password. Additionally, monitor your financial statements and credit reports for any unusual activity.
How can I enhance my online security?
To enhance your online security, consider using a password manager to create and store unique passwords. Avoid clicking on links from unknown sources and be cautious with QR codes. Always use credit cards for online transactions, as they offer better fraud protection compared to debit cards.
What are the signs of identity theft?
Look for unusual charges on your credit card statements and monitor your credit score for significant changes. Regularly check your credit reports from agencies like Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. If you notice any suspicious activity, contact the credit bureau immediately and consider reporting it to the Federal Trade Commission and your local police.
