All kinds of companies track our behavior online and which places we visit and store this data in one way or another.This data is later processed and sold to some other business for profit*It can leave you very exposed*Perhaps the biggest con for all of us is identity theft – how much personal information are you willing so to show on your profile? Name, birthday, place of work… not to mention your financial information for payments. These risks increase significantly the more you share Online
*It’s Not Necessary*
Lots of tracking is done online for the benefit of “convenience.” But in a lot of cases, this convenience comes down to having to make fewer clicks. This kind of convenience isn’t worth it if you give away your personal data and sacrifice online privacy.On the other hand, lots of companies collect data just because everyone is doing it. They want to save it and use it in the future in case there is a need.
*Getting Stuck In Your Comfort Zone*
In the past decade or so, we’ve seen many conspiracy theory movements inspired by the internet. And sadly, it is really easy to get one-sided news. Once websites and services learn about your preferences, they will present similar content. In some cases, it might lead to more fake news and misinformation spread online. Thus, people might struggle to find accurate information due to their past activities.

Cookies are used to tell the server that users have returned to a particular website. When users return to a website, a cookie provides information and allows the site to display selected settings and targeted content.

Cookies also store information such as shopping cart contents, registration or login credentials, and user preferences. This is done so that when users revisit sites, any information that was provided in a previous session or any set preferences can be easily retrieved.

Advertisers use cookies to track user activity across sites so they can better target ads. While this particular practice is usually offered to provide a more personalized user experience, some people also view this as a privacy concern.]]> 2022-05-08 23:06:56 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174748097 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174751234 2022-05-08 23:13:19 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174751234 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174751434 2022-05-08 23:13:45 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174751434 Definition of digital identity arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174753264 A digital identity is the body of information about an individual, organization or electronic device that exists online. Unique identifiers and use patterns make it possible to detect individuals or their devices.Over the last few years, real headway has been made in changing the status quo of digital ID across many sectors and services – especially in finance. Many European jurisdictions have adopted sandboxes or other nationwide projects to spur innovation and create frameworks for standardised digital IDs. The proposed framework for a European Digital Identity is one of several initiatives that highlight regulators’ commitment to digital ID and its potential.Earlier this year, the UK Government released an alpha version of a digital ID and attributes trust framework. It is part of the government’s more comprehensive plan to make it quicker and more accessible for people to verify themselves using modern technology in a secure and trusted process equivalent to proving who you are using a passport in the physical world.]]> 2022-05-08 23:16:30 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174753264 data thses days arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174764284 Data has never been more plentiful or more valuable, nor has it ever been more at risk from breach. Though billions of dollars are spent each year on cyber security, data breaches continue – everywhere. Enterprises must protect sensitive information. Yet recent industry reports and global surveys show that data is not as secure as it should be]]> 2022-05-08 23:34:31 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174764284 how to protect the personal data when online or using connected devices ? arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174765735 Here are some simple ways to protect yourself and your personally identifiable information:
1. Make It Harder for Other People to Get Credit in Your Name
One of the biggest risks of identity theft is that someone will take out loans or credit cards in your name and never pay them. You may not find out until you're ready to buy a car or house, and by then, your credit may have been ruined.
2. Put Passwords on Your Devices
Cell phones, laptops, and tablets are easily lost or stolen. If you don't require a password to log in, then a thief has instant access to all your data.
3. Use Stronger Passwords
Many of us are guilty of using the same, easy-to-remember password over and over.
This is risky behavior because if identity thieves figure out one password, it's not hard to get into more of your accounts. The strongest passwords are long and random. Consider using a password management app to create and keep track of them.
4. Update Your Software Regularly
This includes antivirus software, your operating system, and anything else you use.
Cyber threats change frequently, and many updates address security isssues
5. Be Careful About Opening Email Attachments or Clicking Links
Either of these actions can infect your computer with malware.

You don't have to be an IT expert to protect your personal data. Just be cautious when communicating or shopping online, and set up some simple security measures to protect yourself in the event your personal data is breached.]]> 2022-05-08 23:37:05 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174765735 How to protect the personal data arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174774080 2022-05-08 23:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174774080 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174775669 2022-05-08 23:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174775669 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174775845 2022-05-08 23:53:52 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174775845 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776012 2022-05-08 23:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776012 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776231 2022-05-08 23:54:30 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776231 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776470 2022-05-08 23:54:52 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776470 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776634 2022-05-08 23:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776634 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776906 2022-05-08 23:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174776906 arijalmaboudali https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174777168 2022-05-08 23:56:00 UTC https://padlet.com/arijalmaboudali/no3h9qsehjjzlsrx/wish/2174777168
