Ideal Credit Union dedicated the month of March to Cyber Security Awareness Month and has recently partnered with Jim Stickley, a nationally recognized cyber security expert and his company, Stickley on Security, to provide education and resources for keeping your information safe online. 

When an individual’s identity is stolen, the thief wreaks major havoc on the victim’s financial health, which can take months, or even years, to recover from.

Here at Ideal CU, our biggest priority is your financial wellness. To help keep you safe, we’ve made this guide about recognizing and protecting yourself from scams.

It seems like there’s always a new data leak or identity theft trick to be worried about. If you’re not informed, you risk becoming a victim. Sitting back and waiting for news about scams to come to you may not be enough. In an ever-changing security climate, you need to stay on top of new threats in personal information security.
