Your Social Security number is probably on the dark web. Should you be worried? ...Middle East

(NEXSTAR) – Practically every other week, news breaks of some sort of data breach. Just last month, AT&T revealed sensitive information for more than 70 million people – including their Social Security numbers and passwords – was found on the "dark web." With so many large-scale data breaches, is your personal information already out there? "If it's not, it will be," said Kyle Hanslovan, CEO of cybersecurity firm Huntress. Jay Jacobs, an analyst who worked on Verizon's data breach reporting, told NPR in 2015 he believed 60% to 80% of Social Security numbers had already been compromised by hacks – and that was before the 2017 Equifax breach affecting 148 million people.
