Personal Information
You would be surprised how much personal information gets posted online. Once you start paying attention to this, you will realize just how much people disclose. This is something for you to take note of because providing too much personal information is an easy way for hackers to get into your social media accounts. Do not post when you are going on vacation or the year of your birth, even your anniversary date can be dangerous, especially if you use any of these as part of your passwords.
