Identity theft is the process of stealing a person’s personal information, such as their Social Security number, name, birthdate, and other identifying characteristics. To steal someone’s identity, an attacker needs to obtain some of that personal information. This can be done by hacking into computer systems, taking advantage of weak security practices or obtaining the information from data breaches. In some cases, the attacker may already have some of the information, such as a person’s email address or phone number, making it easier to obtain additional information. In addition to personal information, an attacker will often also need financial information, such as credit card numbers and bank account numbers, in order to gain access to an individual’s bank accounts, make fraudulent purchases, and drain their funds. As such, it is important to be vigilant about protecting and sharing sensitive personal information.
