Legal Service

Security online may not yet match the full number but with the popularity the internet is gaining every month, how long before we see numbers of this magnitude?

What are we to do to secure our identities?

Available to this point is:

• Offline companies that monitor our personal information; once a theft occurs, they are there to help you
• Never do any online activity; who intends to live in a cave in the middle east
• Keep your usernames, passwords, credit card numbers and other information hidden; near our computers written down so we don’t forget
• Create a file on our computers that stores this information; don’t leave your computer near a hacker
• Store information on an offsite backup hard drive or flash drive; home invasions take computers, flash drives are small and can seem to walk away with keys
• Biometric technology; new technology coming on the scene, don’t know much about this?

Some interesting ways that a lot of people store personal information? It is as though the personal information isn’t too important when passwords for important accounts are placed under a keyboard, tacked to the wall, written sticky pad paper tacked on a Kleenex box.

And these are down at the office where we may never know who is in the vicinity of our computers. If an office is large enough and we have had too much coffee, we are only away for a short time?

Think about your “safe” location. Think about your personal habits each day and how much you take for granted. As the economy continues to crawl, opportunistic people may find out how trusting they really are.

Personal identification should become more important to you today than ever before, even more so in the future. With internet security comes confidence because you know that identity authentication after the fact is a long and arduous task.

If you aren’t aware, the director of the FBI was almost a victim of phishing recently, so if it could happen to him??? Listen, we all believe it happens to others; never to us. Same goes for the guy who was car jacked earlier today.
