Did you know that 19 people a minute become new victims of identity theft due to data breaches? Did you know that a Social Security Number can be purchased on the market for a mere $98 or a Birth Certificate for $147?
If you visit a site while searching the web, and it is not a safe site, what potential harm will that have for you, and your personal information? And what are you leaving behind?
The program we came across recently is called McAfee Site Advisor which is a free download. The program once installed on your computer shows the McAfee Site Advisor icon on your tool bar. This program adds safety ratings to your browser and search engine results. When you google a site or visit any web address, once you have installed this program, you will see a safety rating icon showing the status of the site you are entering or checking out. Just like traffic lights, the green checkmark means GO or good.
Check out www.siteadvisor.com for your free download.
More than ever we need to be vigilant about how we protect our information, who we share our personal information with and what steps we need to implement to ensure quick data recovery when we need it.
Get on the path to protect your vital information.
