What
to do to protect your personal info
Though
passwords weren’t exposed in this breach, there are still steps you
can take to better protect your personal info.
Use
an email mask
Giving
out your real email address makes it easier for hackers or trackers
to find your passwords or target you online. A service like Firefox
Relay hides your real email address while forwarding emails to your
real inbox.
Try
Firefox Relay
Use
unique, strong passwords for every account
Password
reuse puts all your accounts at risk. This means that if one password
gets exposed, hackers have the keys to many accounts.
How
to create strong passwords
Store
passwords in a safe place
Put
your login details in a secure place only you can access, such as a
password manager. This also makes it easy to keep track of all your
different passwords.
Myths
about password managers
Be
cautious about giving out personal information
Don’t
hand out personal data if you don’t have to. If you are asked to
enter or give out your email address, ZIP code, or phone number, you
can say no.
