<b>Equifax Hack may
affect 143 Million Americans<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Equifax, one of the
leading credit reporting companies, said that hackers may have gained access to
the personal information of 143 million Americans, including social security
numbers and driver’s license numbers.
Equifax is the epitome of Big Data, collecting every bit of data about
us, and then trafficking in that data for huge profits.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>To Check if you were
affected, go to <a href="http://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/">www.equifaxsecurity2017.com</a> and click on the Check Potential
Impact tab. You must submit your last name and last six digits of your Social
Security number there.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>The Problem is
widespread<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The problem with the
current state of Cyber-Security is that they only focus on keeping intruders
out, and when that fails our personal privacy and financial security is
compromised. With the data that was hacked, thieves can now open up credit card
accounts, take out loans and even gain access to our bank accounts. The current
system is designed for Big Data to quickly and easily profit from our personal
information, and often that is at the expense of our personal privacy and
security.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>New Laws<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Equifax hack has
already generated a tremendous outcry from both Washington and State lawmakers
to put in place new laws and rules that require Big Data to better protect our
information. The personal privacy protection that DatChat has been focused on is
now coming to center stage.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
DatChat has the Solution & Perfect Timing<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Personal Privacy
Platform and the core technology that DatChat has developed is focused on
fixing two major security flaws in the current system:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b> ·
Protecting & Controlling our information after we hit send or
submit.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b> ·
Making our information useless to an intruder should they get it<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The file storage and
financial transaction components of our personal privacy platform are the ideal
solution for Big Data to protect our critical personal and financial
information. Additionally, the new laws
that will most probably result because of the Equifax hack will make our platform
essential.<o:p></o:p></div>

The more time we spend on social networks such as Facebook
and Twitter, the more important it becomes that we take a few basic precautions
to protect our privacy. Here are a few tips that are both easy and effective.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Delete Your Facebook
Search Data: </b>Did you know<b> </b>that all your searches on Facebook are saved unless you delete them. Every
search is logged and kept in a list organized by date and time. While you might want to keep recent searches
for a few weeks, there is no reason to keep detailed historical search data.
Luckily, this is a quick and simple fix.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
It is important to actively manage your privacy settings in order to make sure you that your posts, photos, check-Ins and likes are only seen by those you want to see them. Every few weeks take a few minutes to click on the Privacy Settings on your social media accounts. I<o:p></o:p></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Turn off the GPS function on your smartphone camera. If you plan to share photos online, make
sure that you turn off the GPS on your device to keep your exact location
private. It is amazing how someone can
track you from the data in your pictures and a picture search.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It only takes a few minutes to make sure our personal information is safe. As more of our information is archived forever by the social media we all use, it is even more important to make sure that we share only what we want to be part of our permanent social record.</div>

<br />
<b>A picture is worth a Thousand ways to find You</b><br />
<br />
Sharing a simple picture via text or social media says a lot more about you than what you see in your selfie. Almost all pictures taken with a cell phone contain Meta Data. Meta Data in a digital photo may contain your name, contact info, what type of camera was used, geo-tags that give the location it was taken, exposure information, searchable key words and much more. Keep in mind who and where you share your pictures because they may bocome a road map to your house. <br />
<br />
Even stripping out the Meta data may not protect your privacy. Using image search engines such as TinEye or Google image search can help you find out someones name, social media accounts, location and more. <a href="http://qz.com/779625/none-of-your-pixelated-or-blurred-information-will-stay-safe-on-the-internet/">Now, even blurring out parts of an image may not protect you.</a><br />
<br />
We developed <a href="http://www.datchat.com/">DatChat</a> to protect your privacy by preventing forwarding, stripping out the meta data, encrypting the image and always giving you control to self-destruct it anytime you want.<br />
<br />
Stay safe and remember that once a picture is uploaded to social media assume it will be there forever.<br />

Have you ever sent a message to the wrong person, known someone that has or wish you could un-send a message you already sent? Most of the time you don't know before hand that you wanted a message or conversation to self-destruct. Also, its basically impossible to have a real conversation if every message is disappearing after a few seconds. Think about how you send messages and read the ones you receive. Most of the time you scroll through the conversation to re-read things, Right!. That's why DatChat allows you to have a regular conversation that lasts forever or can be be destructed at any time you want. Plus, how many times have you wanted to share something that couldn't be screenshot. <br />
<br />
<b> DatChat Messenger</b> with total privacy control for both individual and group messages is the first messenger that always gives you the option to erase or change how long your messages last on the other person’s phone. It doesn’t matter if you set your messages to last forever or automatically self-destruct, because at any time each sender can wipe them off the recipient’s phone or give them more time. Senders can choose to change the rights to a single message or destruct all of their messages at the same time.<br />
<br />
<b>Screenshot Protection:</b> DatChat’s Patent Pending protection mode makes it nearly impossible to screenshot a secret picture or message. Also, the sender receives notifications when someone attempts to screenshot protected or regular self-destructing messages.<br />
<br />
<b>“Nuke” </b>a Conversation: Users can even opt to Nuke messages, which erases both sides of the conversation on both the sender and recipient’s devices. Then the entire conversation is gone without a trace.<br />
<br />
<b>Biggest threat to our Privacy:</b> While the media focuses on the potential for the government to invade our privacy, the real threat comes from what happens to our messages in our recipient’s hands. Personal and business relationships are constantly evolving and situations arise where you need to revoke the rights to information you have shared. DatChat eliminates sender regret, and can protects your privacy when you need it the most.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Messaging Rights Management Platform:</b> Patent pending technology allows a sender to set a message to last forever, or automatically self-destruct after a certain number of views. At any time a sender can wipe texts off a recipient’s phone or give the recipient more time to view the message.<br />
“Nuke” a Conversation: Users can even opt to Nuke messages, which erases both sides of the conversation on both the sender and recipient’s devices.<br />
<br />
<b>Encryption:</b> All DatChat messages are encrypted with AES256 for the message, and RSA for the key to ensure your messages are only seen by you and your intended recipients. Each message is individually encrypted for the recipient and cannot be forwarded or saved. Additionally, all messages are sent and received via a SSL connection and can never be viewed by DatChat under any circumstance.<br />
<br />

The news is full of stories of hacking, deleted emails and how to recover those long lost messages. While most of us never have to worry about the a foreign government, or any government wanting to see to our messages. We should all take simple measures to protect our privacy. A simple slip of the "Send" button can cause a lot of embarrassment. The last year and a half I have been working on a new type of messaging platform that would of save a lot of headaches for many politicians lately.<br />

Creepers come in a variety of different type’s psychopaths,
but they all seem to possess a few common skills. Being able to identify how and what they are
doing will shut them down before they get can get close to their end goals of
money, false love or just manipulation for kicks. Knowing how they operate is
the best defense to protect yourself from the wide assortment of psychopaths,
narcissists, covert narcissists, stalkers and other predators that are lurking
online. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before the predator ever sends you a friend request they do
their homework like the good little creepers they are. It doesn’t matter
if it is the harmless guy who lived down the hall from you twenty years ago in
college or someone that just perved your profile on Facebook. Their goal is the
same, to build “Rapport” with you so you trust them. Who doesn’t like someone that is just like
you? In order to do that, they are going
to make sure you have a lot in
common. Think of them as the “Wolf in
Sheep’s Clothing” that have spent hours on Google finding out everything they
can possibly find out about you. They are going to mirror your likes, values
and interest in order to captivate your attention and build a deep
connection. If it sounds creepy, it
is. When you chat with someone that you
have so much in common with it creates an instant rapport, which in turn
creates a trust ans connection. that The creepers are smart, they never come on
too strong in the beginning. Then
something interesting happens, intertwined in the catching up chit chat are
little detours about things they do and like that are the exact same things you
happen to have an interest in. Next
thing you know, you two are chatting about everything that interests you. How can that be? Are they your long lost soul
mate or have they found your Pinterest account?
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Pinterest is almost always one of the top search results if
you google someone. Think of some of the
things people pin on Pinterest such as: Favorite Books, Places They Have Been,
Favorite Movies, Quotes, Pets and Bucket Lists just to name a few. There is a
good reason it is called P- INTEREST. Every
so often the hardest part of talking to someone is finding interesting things to
chat about, Pinterest more than takes care of that problem. It’s the things that we don’t think of that
often make us the most vulnerable. It’s
hard to know if someone is an avid reader on Facebook, but on Pinterest it is
usually clear. On Facebook you can tell where many people have been by their
pictures, but on Pinterest you can see where they dream of going. Often Pinterest opens up a person’s hopes,
dreams and aspirations...which is soul food for the psychopath.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Protecting yourself is fairly easy if you are willing to be just
a little cynical of a new friend request from someone that you haven’t heard
from in twenty years. First Google them.
They Pyscho’s are all liars, and if you catch them in a lie de-friend
and cut off all contact. If you hear the
psychopath’s all-time favorite word of all time “soulmate, “run as fast as you
can. If they ask you to delete their
messages for any reason, run. If they message or call you every day “Love
Bombing”, block them. Get the picture.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
Now, I am not recommending that you stop Pinning, but you
need to familiarize yourself with the different type of “creeps” and “creepers”
out there. The hard ones to spot are the
ones that seem so nice or harmless. They
are usually the ones that you would never suspect, but have had a lock of your
hair and a sock that they stole from your laundry 25 years ago. The covert narcissist is probable the most
dangerous because they are the ones that are so nice on the surface, but just want to suck the life out of you. Keep on pinning anything you want, just make
yourself aware that if someone seems to be your long lost soul mate in a matter
of hours or days…defriend them!<br />

Now that we have become so comfortable with sharing our pictures, political beliefs, family events and pretty much everything else about ourselves, lets take a look at what happens to the info and how it is used.<br />
<br />
About 2 years ago I had an experience that really changed the way I thought of my mobile phone.<br />
I hooked it up to a free trial of a text recovery program that I downloaded for free and was shocked by what I found. Not only did I find text messages that I had thought were long erased, but voice mails, websites, book marked websites, browser history, pictures, pictures hidden in vault apps, deleted call history and much more. I was shocked at what I was able to recover. That got me to start thinking about my next big project and what we all really need to keep our info safe.<br />
<br />
In my next post we will take a look at a popular social sharing site that is the stalkers guide to your soul..can you guess which one it is?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03410371557888348397noreply@blogger.com
