After High-Profile Security Breaches at Equifax, Yahoo and Others, How Can Consumers
Protect Themselves?

Ric Speaks with the Author of Cyber Attack Survival Manual: From Identity Theft to the Digital Apocalypse and Everything in Between

Just last month, consumer credit agency Equifax experienced a cybersecurity breach that potentially affected 143 million American consumers. ("On a scale of 1 to 10 in terms of risk to consumers, this is a 10," said a fraud analyst at Gartner.) This follows several high-profile security leaks at Yahoo, Verizon and others, which have exposed sensitive customer information.

As we live more of our lives online and entrust personal information to the cloud, we inevitably put ourselves at risk. Identities can be stolen, companies' intellectual property can be copied and sold, and even vehicle systems can be hacked.
