Manage episode 224369980 series 1171887
If you are not scared every time you go online to do anything then you are not living in the real world. Every transaction you make in the world today is tracked online even if you do not think it is. As a result, all your personal data is available to malicious individuals to use in ways that may cause you financial or other harm.
So how do you protect yourself? Can you protect yourself?
There is no one answer to this problem since hackers think up new ways to get around measures that are put in place to stop them faster than I can type this post but you have to start now. Software is getting better at stopping them but the best way to stop them is to not let your real data get out there when it does not have to.

Especially if you just received one of those smart devices for the holidays like an Amazon Echo, Google Home or any other IoT device.
