5 Simple Ways to Keep Your Personal Information Safe Online<br />
Protecting your personal information can help reduce your risk of identity and data theft. Take these<br />
necessary safety precautions to avoid being a victim of hackers<br />
By Susan Alexandra, Contributing Writer, None<br />
Connecting to each other is now a need of everyone. From checking emails to communicate with our<br />
loved ones, we daily spend hours on the internet; where a major chunk goes to social channels. According<br />
to Statista, “the daily social media usage of global internet users amounted to 136 minutes per day, up<br />
from 135 daily minutes in the previous year”.<br />
What Hackers can do with my Personal Information?<br />
With the continuous increase in data breaches and data thefts, it’s very important for us to think about<br />
our privacy and security. If you are a victim of data theft, your information can be use for different<br />
purposes. According to VPNPro, “with just a few details, like your date of birth, social security number,<br />
etc., scammers can use your information to take out loans, get credit cards, or use it for more<br />
sophisticated phishing attempts”. Not only this! Hackers can collect your private messages, videos and<br />
images and send it to others.<br />
