Privacy Terms: Privacy
Individual privacy is the ability of an individual to conduct activities without the concern of being observed either directly or indirectly (like examination of data collected through online activities). Information privacy is the appropriate protection of individual data.
Privacy Terms: Security
Online security is the protection of an individual’s data either by the individual themselves, the government or a corporation.
Privacy Terms: Digital Footprint
This is the data that is available online about a person. The data typically contains information about the person’s online activity such as social media accounts, their contacts and other online transactions that they conduct on the Internet. Anything you do online leaves a digital trail. This trail is also called digital footprint.
Privacy Terms: Metadata
This is data which supports the actual data that is manipulated. For example if a digital camera stores an image the size of the image or the format of the image is the metadata.
Privacy Terms: Encryption
Encryption prevents others from reading data. Over the Internet, before being transmitted data is transformed by an algorithm in such a way that it is impossible to unscramble the data without knowing a secret piece of data such as a number.
Privacy Terms: Cryptography
The art of sending secret messages so that they can be read only by the intended recipients. Cryptography is based strongly on algorithms.
Privacy Terms: Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity is also known as the information technology security. It refers to technologies, processes and practices designed to protect networks, devices, software and data that are online from attacks, damage and other unauthorized access.
Privacy Terms: Bitcoin
This is digital currency. It is run by a computer software which keeps the currency working. Bitcoin just like any other currency will be accepted by merchants who accept it. Everything needed by a bitcoin is stored in a distributed ledger called blockchain.
Privacy Terms: Privacy / Security issues in Cloud-based storage
The data stored on the Internet by a computer that can be easily shared is called cloud based storage/computing. The privacy/security concerns include who owns the data, who can access it, and in the case of a data leak who is liable.
Privacy Terms: Malware
This stands for malicious software. Any kind of software that is designed to do some sort of damage to the user running it or gain access to private information is called a malware. Often a malware runs without the knowledge of the user.
Privacy Terms: Internet Of Things
All things connected to the internet which collect data (software updates, etc.) through the Internet and supply data back to remote devices through the Internet. Examples include cellphones, cars, security cameras, refrigerators
