Data hacks and leaks have become quite common in the digital world and brings with it a tangible risk for all using the internet. This largely depends on your service providers getting hacked. The range of service providers can include your mobile operator, broadband provider, food delivery aggregator, e-commerce portal, mobile wallet providers and in some stray instances even your banker. You cannot directly control these risks or its impacts but be vulnerable to its potential impact.

All the data provided for monitoring is stored in an encrypted format in order to prevent misuse. We do not share your data with a third party other than to provide Cyberior’s services that you have requested.

You share information with various suppliers and digital service platforms at every interaction you have with them. This means once you have shared your data, it is very likely that it will be stored with that company for the foreseeable future. Although these companies secure their systems, cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated than before. Once hacked, your data can easily be traded across the globe. Hence, regardless of transacting online regularly, you continue to be part of the digital world and exposed to all digital threats.

No.  Cyberior is not an Anti-virus solution or a replacement for it. Personal data monitoring gives you a visibility of your personal data and alerts you if any of your personal data is found in the public domain.

Personal information is also known as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), which is any information that can be used to identify, contact, or locate an individual. It includes information that is linked or linkable to an individual such as medical, educational, financial and employment information. Examples of data elements include name, fingerprints or other biometric (including genetic) data, email address, telephone number and, national or tax ID numbers.

Identity theft is when someone uses your personal details and poses as you for a fraudulent transaction or gain. They may use your credit card, obtain mobile connections or loans in your name. In some cases, it may result in someone taking complete control of your existing accounts, setting up ECS or making withdrawals. It is very easy for someone to steal your identity with basic information such as your name, date of birth and address. They can then add to that by stalking you on the internet, phishing your private information or trying to install malware on your devices.

As soon as you realize that you are a victim of identity theft you should contact our Cyber Resolution Specialists by using the Support Section in the Cyberior Dashboard. Our team will promptly help resolve the issue that you have faced.

Rising identity theft incidences – South East Asian organizations and individuals are at higher risk of a cybersecurity attack than those in other parts of the world. This is a result of the rapid growth and digitization of economies in the South East Asian region, paired with the lack of spending on cybersecurity.

Everyone is prone – Everyone is prone to identity theft, with some at higher risk, due to excessive sharing of information on Social Media platforms or dumping cash withdrawal receipts in ATM bins without shredding them.

Financial and reputational risks are huge – Stolen funds, unauthorized transactions on credit cards or bank accounts, and a mistaken arrest for a crime committed by an identity thief can cause a huge loss of reputation. Bad credit history may affect a victim’s ability to get a job or take a loan causing further harm to one’s financial stability.

Weak cyber laws and low spending – Weaker data privacy and victim friendly laws, weaker law enforcement and a limited number of cybersecurity specialists, in terms of availability and skill set, make it easy for identity thieves to poach data from users and organizations in South East Asia. Furthermore, Southeast Asian countries spend less than 50% of the cybersecurity budgets of their Western counterparts.

Legal hassles to restore identity – 1 in 5 victims spend more than a month in legal hassles to resolving problems resulting from identity theft.

Ignorant victims – Lack of awareness and taking preventive measures for safe online behaviour makes it easy for cybercriminals to steal your data.
