With demonetisation becoming a reality, it is time we learnt to take control of our digital lives.
YOUR PHONE, tablet and laptop know more about your life than you ever will. To understand that better do a small experiment. Do a quick scroll through all your pictures starting with the oldest ones; now do a search of all your private emails with the word ‘important’ and check their content, check how many passwords, ATM pins, online transaction codes and other such info you’ve jotted down as notes on your phone. Shocked? Well, it constitutes just one per cent of all the pieces that make up your digital life.
Now think of all that information freely available to unknown people. People who could suck all that away from you, lock down your phone or computer making it inaccessible to you, threaten you with publicly exposing all that information and finally demanding money to open your device again for you. Sounds far fetched? Well, it’s time to wake up to the reality of digital crime and making sure it doesn’t happen to you.
