After the case was detected, people could not help but feel nuanced and creepy. I didn't expect our closely related personal information to be used as a profit-making tool and sold so cheaply. We may be wary of surfing the Internet at the same time, but our information may fall into the hands of others because of the leakage of some channels and the bad personal information. It is actually used as a trading commodity.
In this information age, how can we prevent our personal information from falling off? How can I prevent my personal information from becoming a profitable product in the hands of others?
I think the storage and confidentiality of personal information depends not only on ourselves, but also on the websites or businesses that collect our personal information. We need to use our phone number and other personal information when registering various applications or website accounts. Including home address, ID number and so on. Therefore, our personal information is no longer personal. To a certain extent, many websites and apps collect our personal information. Therefore, the disclosure of personal information may not be due to low vigilance, but may be the background data leakage of some websites and apps.
I should pay attention to saving my personal information online.
In the online world, we will inevitably use our personal information in various channels to apply, but we should not take it lightly on the way. For some official and more formal APP software, you can use your personal account to carry out necessary activities. But for some third-party websites or illegal software, we should prohibit using our personal information to register accounts or engage in some illegal activities.
And in the communication with strangers, we should also pay attention to the custody of our personal information. Don't disclose your mobile phone number and information address easily, and more importantly, don't disclose your personal ID number.
Apps and websites that collect other people's information should improve the defense system and strengthen staff management.
Many times, our personal information is leaked by some platforms that collect our information. It may be because these information thieves are highly skilled and broke through the defense system in the background. This leads to the loss of data. It is also possible that the people who work here resold our information. Whatever the reason, enterprises and platforms should do something to lock the personal information of customers.
