As with many big-name brands, cybercriminals see these companies as an ideal target to carry out large-scale attacks, which has now become a reality for the financial organization. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2019\/07\/29\/business\/capital-one-data-breach\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">According to CNN<\/a>, approximately 100 million Capital One users in the U.S. and 6 million in Canada have been affected by a data breach exposing about 140,000 Social Security numbers, 1 million Canadian Social Insurance numbers, and 80,000 bank account numbers, and more.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2019\/07\/30\/capital-one-hacker-boasted-on-social-media-after-breach-court-docs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Post<\/a>, the alleged hacker claimed the data was obtained through a firewall misconfiguration.

If you think you might have been affected by this breach, follow these tips to help you stay secure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Check to see if you\u2019ve been notified by Capital One.<\/strong> The bank will notify everyone who was affected by the breach and offer them free credit monitoring and identity protection services. Be sure to take advantage of the services and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitalone.com\/facts2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">check out the website<\/a> Capital One set up for information on this breach.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Review your accounts.<\/strong> Be sure to look over your credit card and banking statements and report any suspicious activity as soon as possible. Capital One will allow you to freeze your card so purchases can no longer be made.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Change your credentials.<\/strong> Err on the side of caution and change your passwords for all of your accounts. Taking extra precautions can help you avoid future attacks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Freeze your credit.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/learn\/security-freeze\/\">Freezing your credit<\/a> will make it impossible for criminals to take out loans or open up new accounts in your name. To do this effectively, you will need to freeze your credit at each of the three major credit-reporting agencies (Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Consider using identity theft protection.<\/strong> A solution like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/home.mcafee.com\/root\/campaign.aspx?cid=210317\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">McAfee Identify Theft Protection<\/a> will help you to monitor your accounts and alert you of any suspicious activity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And, of course, to stay updated on all of the latest consumer and mobile security threats, follow\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/McAfee_Home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@McAfee_Home\u00a0<\/a>on Twitter, listen to our podcast\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/geo.itunes.apple.com\/podcast\/us\/id1257232208?mt=2&amp;at=1010lbVy&amp;ct=mcafeehackable_GaryBlog_EndBlurb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Hackable?<\/em><\/a>, and \u2018Like\u2019 us on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/McAfee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Capital One is one of the 10 largest banks based on U.S. deposits.
