Digital privacy

Today keeping your identity safe is more important than ever. One way to protect your identity is by taking steps to protect your digital privacy.
Digital privacy has to do with what information is shared on the internet about you. 
What can you do to protect your information? Keep your devices software up to date. Updates help manufacturers patch security vulnerabilities quickly. Two factor authentication is another way to protect yourself. Instead of relying only on a password, user accounts secured by two-factor authentication require an additional level of proof of ID before granting access. Freezing your credit stops unauthorized opening of credit cards or loans but can be extra work to un- freeze when you are trying to get a loan or new employment. We all know new passwords help protect us, that’s where a password manager comes in. They create passwords for you and you only have to remember the one to get into your account.
