Imagine crafting a piece of ransomware, a masterpiece designed to stealthily penetrate defenses, encrypting everything in its path, rendering data inaccessible to its rightful owners. The attack begins with phishing emails, exploiting software vulnerabilities, or brute-forcing weak passwords. Once inside, the ransomware spreads like wildfire, encrypting files, databases, and backups, ensuring the victim’s desperation.

AT&T recently announced 73 million past and current account holders had personal information exposed to the dark web, with 89% of those impacted no longer customers. Anthony Mini discussed the AT&T data breach with WEEK-TV 25’s news team, saying the increase in data breaches and attacks where personal data is exposed has become “old news” to some… and that’s a problem.
Given the recent AT&T data breach, Anthony Mini recommends the following:
1. Monitor your accounts with identity protection services.
2. Check the status of your e-mail accounts that have been exposed to other breaches using the website: https://haveibeenpwned.com/.
3. Never re-use a password from one account to another.
4. Create strong passwords using the passphrase approach by mixing multiple words together, then adding a number and special character.
5. Use a password manager if you don’t want to think about passwords anymore.
6. Use Multifactor Authentication on all important accounts.
7. Take advantage of credit freezes and year-long fraud alerts. Thanks to a federal law, these services are available for free. Here’s what you should know: https://consumer.ftc.gov/consumer-alerts/2018/09/free-credit-freezes-are-here.
