Systems and methods for protecting users

Abstract:

The disclosed computer-implemented method for protecting users may include (i) intercepting an attempt to login to a user account of an application using a login credential, (ii) preventing a user corresponding to the user account from revealing personally identifiable information by populating a field for the login credential with a value for an identity-masking persona as a substitute for the personally identifiable information, and (iii) enabling a completion of the attempt to login to the user account of the application using the value for the identity-masking persona, rather than the personally identifiable information, to provide the user with access to an online resource through the application. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
