The dark what hackers don't want you to know. Have you heard of the Dark Web? What's the Dark Web? It's the wild, wild west of the Internet where anything goes. You can buy all sorts of things there from fake IDs, stolen credit card numbers. They can find your name, your address, your Social Security number. They can even find your medical records. And with all that information, they can seriously do some damage. Oh my God, that is terrifying. So how do I protect myself? Have strong passwords, monitor your credit and stay vigilant. You can also do a Dark Web scan which allows you to see if any of your credentials have been stolen in a data breach. If it has, take necessary steps to update your password to make sure that they're strong and unique. You can also generate unique passwords and do a dark web scan using the Keeper security link in my bio. Get 40% off the entire year using Cybergirl. 40.
