Internet Security

Hello, I've been having many security problems with internet security as of late. My email and phone security got exposed even after they were both replaced with new ones. Not sure how that could have happened. So I think someone could have gotten the details of my internet box to gain access to my network and then were able to log my information in-turn able to hijack my accounts. Should I replace the whole internet box? You think that'll help seal any network hijackings?

Do you have a home computers? Have you had it checked for viruses or backdoors? If you don't secure that anything is possible.

I would also recommend checking if your passwords have been compromised as well. If you used the same login and password on another site or service that was compromised, that could be one way it happened.

At the least, after making sure there is no malware / viruses / remote access apps on your devices, I'd recommend changing your wireless password and then all passwords associated with your phone or anything that you think you had security problems with.
