If your personal information has been compromised in a data breach, it is important to take certain steps to protect yourself:
- Contact the credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) to place a fraud alert.
- Close any compromised accounts.
- Monitor your credit score closely.
- Report any suspicious activity to the company and file a police report.
- Create strong passwords for all of your accounts.
- Set up two-factor authentication.
