Relevant Cybersecurity Incidents in Argentina
A compilation of the most significant cybersecurity incidents in Argentina that have been reported in the media.
The Importance of Protecting Our Personal Data
As we can observe in the timeline above, cybersecurity incidents in Argentina are becoming increasingly frequent and affect both public and private institutions. This reality compels us to be more conscious about how we protect our personal information.
Basic Protection Measures
- • Use unique and strong passwords for each service
- • Enable two-factor authentication whenever available
- • Be cautious when sharing personal information online
- • Keep your devices and applications up to date
The data leaks documented by Marcela Pallero demonstrate that no organization is completely safe from cyberattacks. Therefore, it is essential for each individual to take an active role in protecting their personal data, minimizing the sensitive information they share, and using available security tools.
Protect Your ID When Sharing It
A common situation is the need to share our ID for procedures or validations. For this, we recommend using Safe ID, our free tool that allows you to:
- • Blur sensitive data that is not necessary for the procedure
- • Add watermarks with the recipient and specific purpose
- • Process everything locally without sending information to external servers
Tip: Always include in the watermark the full name of the recipient and the specific purpose of the procedure.
Important reminder: Personal data is valuable and its protection should be a priority. Once information is leaked, it is practically impossible to regain control over it.
