Did you hear about the recent Ticketmaster data breach? It was another reminder that our personal information is always at risk.



A cybercriminal hacker group known as ShinyHunters claimed responsibility for this incident, which compromised the data of over 560 million users worldwide!



They have been responsible for several high-profile data breaches since 2020.


Cybercriminals steal and sell personal and sensitive information from major companies on the dark web.



This breach highlights the growing threat cybercriminals pose and emphasizes the need to be alert about our online security.



To protect yourself from falling victim to the increasing number of data breaches, it’s crucial to:



1️⃣ Stay informed about the latest cyber threats and data breaches.



2️⃣ Update your passwords regularly and use unique, strong passwords for different accounts. Please STOP USING YOUR PETS NAME. Don't underestimate what these criminals know about you.



3️⃣ Enable two-factor authentication wherever possible. It's the latest best way to help protect yourself.



4️⃣ Monitor your financial accounts and credit reports for any unauthorized activity. Remember, monitoring alone is not enough.



5️⃣ Use reputable identity protection services that provide all the layers of security. If you have the lowest level of protection, you pretty much have nothing. Monitoring alone is NOT enough.



Monitoring alone is NOT enough. 



Yes, I'm being redundant for a reason!!



Every day I talk to business owners and employees who think the monitoring services they have are sufficient. 



💥 💥 Most identity theft is NOT monitored!💥 💥 



It’s time to take control of your online security and stay one step ahead of cybercriminals. 



Your bank, credit card company and insurance alone do not provide comprehensive services. They protect themselves.



Don't wait for the next data breach to happen – protect yourself today! 



Do you have comprehensive identity theft protection?
