WHAT IS IDENTITY THEFT?

Cybercriminals and hackers seek to exploit your personal information in order to scam and steal from you. What's even worse is when they gain enough data to assume your identity.

With the right information, a scammer can drain your bank account, take out loans in your name, make online purchases at your expense, and even access your medical records. In the worst-case scenario, a criminal can literally steal your identity and sell it to someone else. This person might then utilize your social security number to obtain a passport and create a new life under your name and identity.

HOW DOES GUARDIO PROTECT ME?

The safeguarding process begins with identifying data leaks. Guardio thoroughly searches all corners of the internet, including the Dark Web, to determine if your data has been exposed where it shouldn't be. Should any leaks or exposures be detected, we promptly alert you. This allows you crucial time to protect or update your most sensitive information such as passwords and credit cards before malicious individuals can sell it. This is how Guardio ensures your safety from identity theft.

WHAT IS A DATA LEAK?

Put simply, a data leak occurs when your personal and sensitive information is unintentionally or maliciously exposed online. As most of our daily activities now take place online, such as shopping, banking, healthcare, insurance, bill payments, and even pizza orders, it is common for individuals to have around 130 active online accounts on average. Each of these accounts begins with your email address, which is often provided alongside various other details when signing up or logging in.

Occasionally, data may be leaked accidentally, but more frequently, it is stolen. Data can be stolen through phishing attacks or data breaches. When hackers target a platform or a company's website, they gain access to customer records. Each year, millions – if not billions – of records are stolen this way. Hackers breach a company's security and then distribute the stolen data online.
