SECURITY BREACHES



It's seems like almost every week you'll read/hear/or see on the nightly news a story about some company being hacked into and large numbers of credit card data, social security numbers, and other information that could truly affect someone that now falls into the category of "Those Who Have Been Breached".

If you live in Sugar Land you know (or should know) that the Sugar Land police have a website which has a page which lists various crimes by the time, date, and area it happened. It wouldn't be to painful to visit that site once in awhile just to make sure a percentage of crime hasn't grown in your neighborhood.

You're wondering, "How is he going to tie these two together and make sense?". Well....


there is a website which has a chart of the most recent company website hacks, how many files were taken, date, etc. And it wouldn't hurt to visit that site every now and then to make sure it's not a place where you have personal data that could be compromised. It's run by the Open Security Foundation and you can just click on that link to get you there.
