Four steps you can start taking now to make ID security a priority — and a practice:  1. Change weak passwords. Do not use your birth date or part of your address or phone number. Strongest passwords combine upper- and lowercase letters, numbers and special characters.

 2. Make sure your home Wi-Fi network is password-protected. Be careful how you use your devices at public hot spots. Most aren't secure — which means any information you send is only protected if you're on an encrypted website. To be sure a website is encrypted, look for "https" in the address before you log in or send any personal info.

 3. Don't click on links in unsolicited emails. Don't give out information over the phone or online unless you've verified the source.

 4. Keep your eye on debit and credit cards when paying for purchases. If anything seems out of the ordinary, be cautious using your card.
