Welcome to MySecurityIQ

This blog is a companion for the web site at www.mysecurityiq.com. The purpose of this blog is to share stories, ideas, lessons and advice on personal information security.

Information crime statistics show that as citizens we are losing the war against cybercrime one battle at a time - and most of us don't even know it. There is very little awareness in the general population about information security, and how most internet users have become vulnerable to a number of crimes. We must come to realize that corporations will not protect our personal data. The government will not protect our personal data. It is up to us, as individuals, to take personal responsibility for understanding the threats against us and what to do to neutralize these threats.

I welcome comments, suggestions and especially personal stories of people who have been victims of identity theft, auction fraud, or other types of information crimes.
