As some of you may know, DHS got hacked and sure enough I got that letter on the mail yesterday 6/23/15 confirming it. The letter comes with a link and a special code to use with CSID credit monitoring. The letter states that whether you sign up or not, you will be cover for up to $1,000,000.
I did go to the site and sign up, process is easy and you are able to add up to 5 credit/debit cards numbers (which i added but wish i could add 6), i added my passport, email, cell and home number. They will be monitoring those for free which is cool. Also, you're able to pull your credit report right away which includes EX, EQ and TU, but no scores.
Just wanted to pass this along in case you are or were a former federal employee with DHS.
