11 April 2023 is recognised as Identity Management Day. Below are some practical tips on keeping your online identity on lock.
- Protect personal information.
Don’t post NIB cards, Driver’s Licences, and
other identifiable info. - Close old accounts.
Unused accounts are easier to hack. - Stay alert for scams.
Beware of giveaways, quizzes and surveys soliciting banking info. - Avoid app sharing.
If one app is hacked, linked apps become vulnerable. - Stop oversharing.
The more you share on social media, the better a scammer can clone or access your account.
