Were you contacted about your data being breached quick enough?

Most companies delay or never even notify you… until it’s too late. You deserve better.

We scan the dark web and work with various organisations to protect you proactively. We also connect with those who are affected by a breach to help when no one (or few others) do, and when action is slow.

If you’ve been contacted by us – you’re likely still at risk, you might not have been told, and it’s time to take action:

Support & Resources

We provide personalised support and resources for you to make recovering, defending, and protecting against a known data breach - or do it all for you.

How you can defend yourself from future breaches

Check your level of protection. Higher protection makes it harder and less likely you will be hacked.

Improve your account security and overall online & device safety with 4 key steps:

Step 1

Get future breach alerts

Make sure you get fast alerts when any account breaches or any of your personal data gets exposed online by hackers, and on the dark web. Don’t get alerts? Sign up today:

If we contacted you: Did you know about your breached info otherwise? If you didn’t, that’s exactly why you should sign up for ALL alerts to protect yourself. Your first one was free.

Step 2

Secure your passwords

Make sure you use a password manager app to keep all your passwords more secure than on paper, or in your computer files. Don’t use one? We recommend NordPass for its ease of use:

Free and paid versions available for every device

Step 3

Secure your devices

Install antivirus security software to help detect, remove, and prevent dangerous files and apps from your devices. Security software scans your device in the background to protect it while you use it and when away.

Free and paid versions available for every device

Step 4

Secure your browsing

Protect yourself from criminals, hackers, and even the government when you browse online. If you visit and use public or hotel WiFi, a VPN is essential (public/shared WiFi has many fake sites to steal your data).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Why choose us?

Proactive protection: Putting people first

  • Notifying affected people of their data being breached before they are directly signed up with us.
    • Why? People deserve to be protected. Data and identify theft is a terrible thing to happen to people, yet many don’t even know it’s happened to them until it’s far too late. Many companies don’t notify their customers in time, or at all because they don’t want to look bad. If they don’t want to be notified – that’s very unlikely, but they can simply unsubscribe from our alerts.

Active protection:

  • Daily, weekly, and monthly scans of the dark web, data from information brokers, and other sources to see if there is information of yours that shouldn’t be out there (leaked, personal, etc).
  • Regular removal of information on the dark web, from information brokers, and other sources as we find it.
  • Alerts to your credit reporting agencies and other institutions to help secure your credit, accounts, and funds. If you are being asked for extra security steps to confirm your identity with them, this is often why. Stronger security is the best defense.
  • Alerts to YOU if your data, accounts, or information has been breached or stolen… often before other companies will report it (if at all)

Reactive and post-breach solutions:

  • Collaboration with credit reporting agencies and organisations to help secure your accounts
  • Support resources on how to protect your accounts and data as well as how to help prevent it from happening again, or to lower your risk
  • Services to remove data, protect information and recover your accounts
  • Solutions for those who need extra support with tech to stay and be protected and level up their security without giving them all the burden

A data breach is where your personal information (which usually includes emails, passwords, ID, documents, accounts, and other private stuff) is stolen by hackers and posted on the dark web, shared with other criminals, and used to steal your money, take out loans in your name, steal your identity, steal your accounts, and cause all sorts of problems.

Hundreds of thousands of people all around the world are affected by data breaches and have their information and ID stolen every year, and many don’t even know about it.

Protect yourself and get alerts early – we can help you protect and defend yourself. Sign up for alerts and protection with us today.

Every month, we use the information you provided about yourself to us to search through over 600⁩ data broker sites that sell people’s private information around the world. If we find your data on any of these sites, we initiate the request for removal – if you have a paid data protection and removal plan. See our plans page for more.

You need to visit our resource centre (blog) to learn what to do after a data breach and get guided steps to resolve exposures of your personal info.

Hackers rely on people reusing passwords, so it’s important to create strong, unique passwords for all your accounts.

Keep your passwords in a safe place that only you have access to; this could be the same place where you store important documents or a password manager.

Not all breaches expose all the same info. It just depends on what hackers can access.

Typical data breaches expose email addresses and passwords to your accounts.

More serious and bigger breahes steal more sensitive information such as credit card numbers, PIN numbers, social security numbers, your ID, and more.

The stolen information can be used to access your accounts, impersonate you, steal your money, apply for loans in your name, sold to other criminals, and more.

The best protection is to follow the recommended protection steps in our resource center (blog) and sign up for active data removal, and data breach alerts. See our plans page for more.

Still questioning?

You should know:

There’s a victim of identity theft in the U.S. every 5 seconds (and similar all around the world).

The IRS flagged nearly 2 million tax returns for possible ID fraud in 2024.

Each data breach tends to be bigger and more impactful than before. The more breaches you don’t know about or hear about too late, the more damage that can be done.

Did you know that many companies and organisations don’t notify you if there is a breach or take too long to do so?

Get notified so you can take immediate action, or pick a plan so we can take care of it for you. Give yourself less to worry about and sign up for active protection and fast alerts today:
