If an employee's identity is compromised, the information the identity thief obtains can be used to access the organization's network and compromise or damage its data. Therefore, it is important that I help employees protect their identities. Some common ways to do this include ensuring that they use strong and unique passwords that are updated frequently, avoiding sharing confidential information online, verifying the identity of websites they visit, and other similar methods."
