Key Takeaways
- Nws nyuaj los tiv thaiv koj tus kheej hauv Is Taws Nem vim tias koj lub xov tooj tau xau cov ntaub ntawv hais txog koj txhua lub sijhawm, cov kws tshawb fawb hais.
- Hackers tuaj yeem nrhiav tau xov tooj, SMS ntawv, thiab cov duab khi rau cov neeg siv los ntawm kev txheeb xyuas cov metadata zoo.
- Koj yuav tsum tsis txhob muab cov ntawv thov nkag rau koj qhov kev tshaj tawm xov xwm.
Koj lub xov tooj smartphone yuav xau cov ntaub ntawv hais txog koj.
Ib txoj kev tshawb fawb tshiab hais tias cov tuam txhab xov tooj thiab cov tsim tawm tsis ua txaus los khaws cov neeg siv tsis qhia npe. Cov kws tshawb fawb pom tau tias tib neeg tam sim no tuaj yeem txheeb xyuas nrog qee cov ntsiab lus ntawm qhov lawv sib txuas lus nrog cov apps. Cov xov xwm los ntawm kev txhawj xeeb txog qhov txo qis ntawm kev ceev ntiag tug hauv internet.
"Cov neeg feem coob tsis paub tias cov ntaub ntawv twg tuaj yeem siv tawm tsam lawv kom txog thaum nws lig dhau lawm," John Bambenek, tus kws tshawb fawb ntawm lub tuam txhab kev ruaj ntseg cybersecurity Netenrich, hais rau Lifewire hauv kev xam phaj email. "Cov neeg raug tsim txom hauv tsev, cov chaw ua haujlwm lom neeg, thiab cov neeg dag ntxias tuaj yeem siv cov ntaub ntawv ntau ntawm peb lub xov tooj smartphones (lossis tsim los ntawm peb lub xov tooj smartphones) thiab siv nws tawm tsam peb ntau txoj hauv kev."
Saib Koj
Kev tsis qhia npe hauv internet nyuaj dua li qhov koj xav.
Daim ntawv tsis ntev los no hauv phau ntawv xov xwm Nature Communications tau tshawb nrhiav cov ntaub ntawv tsis qhia npe los ntawm ntau dua 40,000 tus neeg siv xov tooj ntawm tes, feem ntau yog los ntawm kev xa xov. Cov kws tshawb fawb los ntawm cov tsev tshawb fawb European tau tshawb nrhiav cov qauv hauv cov ntaub ntawv thiab pom tias lawv tuaj yeem txheeb xyuas tus neeg 15 feem pua ntawm lub sijhawm.
"Peb cov txiaj ntsig tau muab pov thawj uas cuam tshuam thiab txawm tias rov sau npe cov ntaub ntawv sib cuam tshuam tseem tuaj yeem txheeb xyuas tau txawm tias nyob rau lub sijhawm ntev," sau cov kws tshawb fawb hauv daim ntawv.
Cov txiaj ntsig kev tshawb fawb los tsis muaj qhov xav tsis thoob rau Bambenek. Tsuav koj tuaj yeem khi cov ntaub ntawv tshwj xeeb taw qhia rau ib tus neeg tus kheej, nws tuaj yeem siv los deanonymize cov ntaub ntawv, nws hais. Piv txwv li, qee qhov kev tshawb fawb tau pom tias cov xov tooj smartphones tuaj yeem txheeb xyuas qhov tshwj xeeb rau ib tus neeg los ntawm kev nrhiav kev sib txheeb ntawm tsawg li plaub qhov chaw uas cov cuab yeej pom ntawm.
"Cov npe siv tshwj xeeb (piv txwv li, rau kev ua si) cuam tshuam nrog cov ntawv thov tuaj yeem pab tsim tus kheej ib yam, "nws hais. "Feem ntau cov kev sib tham hauv online muaj cov cim tshwj xeeb uas tuaj yeem ua qhov profile kom tso cai rau stalkers tshawb fawb cov kev sib tw sab nraum cov apps sib tham (thiab lawv pab pawg kev nyab xeeb).
Sijhawm Hloov thiab Yog Li Koj Cov Ntaub Ntawv
Nws tau yooj yim dua los nkaum hauv internet. Yav dhau los, thaum cov ntaub ntawv tau sau nrog kev sib txuas ncaj qha rau tus xov tooj ntawm tes lossis lub npe, nws nyuaj rau kev txuas tus neeg siv thiab lawv tus cwj pwm, tus kws tshaj lij cybersecurity Scott Schober hais rau Lifewire hauv kev xam phaj email.
Qhov no tau hloov pauv loj heev, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog ob peb xyoos dhau los uas tam sim no koj tsis xav tau tus xov tooj ntawm tes lossis lub npe ntawm tus neeg siv los ua kev sib txuas vim muaj cov ntaub ntawv nplua nuj ntau uas tau sau los ntawm lub xov tooj smartphone,”nws ntxiv.
"Lub pob loj tshaj plaws rau cov nyiaj yog los ntawm kev muab cov apps thiab cov kev pabcuam tsuas yog tsawg kawg ntawm cov cai tsim nyog los khiav hauv koj lub xov tooj."
Ntau cov ntaub ntawv uas nchuav los ntawm cov neeg siv hu ua metadata (cov ntaub ntawv uas muab cov ntaub ntawv hais txog lwm cov ntaub ntawv) tab sis tsis yog cov ntsiab lus tiag tiag, Schober tau hais. Los ntawm kev txheeb xyuas cov metadata uas tau sau tseg, cov neeg nyiag nkas tuaj yeem txiav txim siab qhov tseeb ntawm tus kheej cov ntaub ntawv xws li hu xov tooj, SMS ntawv, thiab duab.
"Feem ntau muaj hnub tim thiab lub sijhawm cov nyiaj muas noj uas cuam tshuam nrog tus cwj pwm, kev nyiam, thiab kev ua ub no uas tus neeg koom nrog, "Schober taw qhia. "Cov ntaub ntawv sau tseg no nrog tus lej xov tooj thiab lub npe raug tshem tawm tseem muab qhov pom tseeb rau hauv ib tus neeg lub neej txaus tias lawv tsis yog tus neeg siv tsis qhia npe thiab ntau yam txog lawv lub neej txhua hnub tuaj yeem kawm tau.”
Kev tswj hwm koj tus kheej hauv Is Taws Nem yog ib qho teeb meem nyuaj, tab sis muaj qee cov kauj ruam koj tuaj yeem ua uas tuaj yeem pab tau.
Yog tias koj yog tus neeg siv iPhone, nco ntsoov tias Apple tso cai rau koj rov pib dua koj tus Advertiser ID txhua lub sijhawm, taw qhia txog cybersecurity tus kws tshaj lij Vikram Venkatasubramanian hauv email sib tham nrog Lifewire. Ib ntus rov pib dua tus ID delinks koj cov ntaub ntawv los ntawm koj.
"Qhov no yog qhov zoo uas yuav tsum ua raws li kev nyiam huv ntawm tus kheej," nws hais. "Tab sis qhov tawg loj tshaj plaws rau cov nyiaj npib los ntawm kev muab cov apps thiab cov kev pabcuam tsuas yog tsawg kawg ntawm cov cai uas xav tau los khiav hauv koj lub xov tooj."
Cov neeg siv yuav tsum ua kom tsis txhob muab cov apps nkag mus rau lawv cov social media profiles. Nws tseem yog ib lub tswv yim zoo kom ceev faj txog cov apps twg tuaj yeem nkag mus rau koj lub koob yees duab thiab lub microphone, Venkatasubramanian tau hais.
"Tsis muaj laj thawj vim li cas ' huab cua' app yuav tsum tso cai nkag mus rau koj lub koob yees duab, microphone, lossis cov ntaub ntawv hauv zos, "nws hais ntxiv. "Thiab kawg tab sis tsis tsawg kawg, ib txwm rub tawm cov apps tsuas yog los ntawm cov khw muag khoom muaj npe nrov."
