How to protect yourself after new, massive data breaches
SUMMARY: Two major cybersecurity breaches have recently emerged: one exposed 16 billion passwords across social media, corporate platforms, and developer portals, while another targeted insurance giant Aflac, potentially compromising Social Security numbers and personal health information. Aflac detected suspicious activity in its U.S. network but stopped the intrusion within hours. Experts urge everyone to change every password on all devices, ensuring each password is unique to prevent a single breach from compromising multiple accounts. Using a password manager is highly recommended to securely generate, store, and manage complex passwords efficiently across devices.
The headlines say it all. 16 billion passwords leaked. Independent media outlet “Cybernews” reports its researchers discovered the massive breach involving social media, corporate platforms, VPNs and developer portals.
If that wasn’t concerning enough, Friday morning, another cybersecurity story broke.
