To discover the various accounts, the methods, computer-readable media, software, and apparatuses can monitor at least a consumer's email accounts, web browser history, and web cache. The discovered accounts may be displayed to the consumer along with recommendations and assistance for closing unused or unwanted accounts to prevent unauthorized access or use.
