Identity thieves no longer need your password, experts warn

شناختی چوروں کو اب آپ کے پاس ورڈ کی ضرورت نہیں، ماہرین نے خبردار کر دیا

पहचान चोरों को अब आपके पासवर्ड की ज़रूरत नहीं, विशेषज्ञों ने चेतावनी दी

Identity thieves no longer need your password, experts warn

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Online criminals do not always need to steal your password to take over an account, a new security warning explains.
  • They may hijack an active login session, trick you into approving a sign-in, take control of your phone number, or use malware to collect information from your device.
  • The advice is to regularly review active sessions, connected devices, recovery addresses and forwarding rules, remove anything unfamiliar, and use unique passwords with a password manager.
  • آن لائن مجرموں کو اکاؤنٹ پر قبضہ کرنے کے لیے ہمیشہ آپ کا پاس ورڈ چرانے کی ضرورت نہیں ہوتی، ایک نئی سیکیورٹی وارننگ میں بتایا گیا ہے۔ وہ آپ کے فعال لاگ ان سیشن کو ہائی جیک کر سکتے ہیں، آپ کو سائن ان کی منظوری کے لیے دھوکا دے سکتے ہیں، آپ کے فون نمبر پر قبضہ کر سکتے ہیں، یا آپ کے ڈیوائس سے معلومات لینے کے لیے مالویئر استعمال کر سکتے ہیں۔ مشورہ یہ ہے کہ فعال سیشنز، منسلک ڈیوائسز، ریکوری ایڈریسز اور فارورڈنگ قوانین کا باقاعدگی سے جائزہ لیں، نامعلوم چیزوں کو ہٹا دیں، اور پاس ورڈ مینیجر کے ساتھ منفرد پاس ورڈ استعمال کریں۔ اگر قبضے کا شبہ ہو تو فوری کارروائی کریں، سب سے پہلے اپنی مرکزی ای میل سے، اور اپنے نام پر نئے اکاؤنٹ کھلنے سے روکنے کے لیے کریڈٹ فریز پر غور کریں۔
  • ऑनलाइन अपराधियों को खाता हथियाने के लिए हमेशा आपका पासवर्ड चुराने की ज़रूरत नहीं होती, एक नई सुरक्षा चेतावनी में बताया गया है। वे आपके सक्रिय लॉगिन सत्र को हाइजैक कर सकते हैं, आपको साइन-इन मंज़ूर करने के लिए धोखा दे सकते हैं, आपके फ़ोन नंबर पर नियंत्रण ले सकते हैं, या आपके डिवाइस से जानकारी लेने के लिए मैलवेयर का इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं। सलाह यह है कि सक्रिय सत्रों, जुड़े डिवाइसों, रिकवरी पतों और फ़ॉरवर्डिंग नियमों की नियमित समीक्षा करें, अपरिचित चीज़ों को हटाएं, और पासवर्ड मैनेजर के साथ अनूठे पासवर्ड इस्तेमाल करें। अगर कब्ज़े का शक हो तो तुरंत कार्रवाई करें, सबसे पहले अपने मुख्य ईमेल खाते से, और अपने नाम पर नए खाते खुलने से रोकने के लिए क्रेडिट फ्रीज़ पर विचार करें।

The advice is to regularly review active sessions, connected devices, recovery addresses and forwarding rules, remove anything unfamiliar, and use unique passwords with a password manager. If you suspect a takeover, act quickly, starting with your main email account, and consider a credit freeze to stop criminals opening new accounts in your name.
