Data breaches are now an annoyingly normal part of life: You change your stolen passwords, cancel your compromised credit cards. But it can be a significantly more serious problem when hackers get your medical data. Last year, about 1 in 3 Americans had their medical records breached, according to the federal government.

In this episode, we’ll look at how hackers are getting their hands on this highly sensitive personal information, what they’re able to do with it, and how you can protect yourself.

Special guests:

Eva Velasquez, President and CEO of the Identity Theft Resource Center

James Lee, Chief Operating Officer at the Identity Theft Resource Center
