In todays world, having an online presence is practically unavoidable. More and more of our daily lives happen online, and unless youre a sailor out at sea or a forest ranger, living completely offline is a rare luxury. Its estimated that each of us generates roughly two to three gigabytes of data every hour through show more ...
our smartphones, IoT devices, and online services. So, its no wonder that, for example, around 70% of Americans are concerned about the government collecting their data, and a staggering ~80% worry about corporations doing the same. Today, we explore where and how our everyday actions leave digital trails, and what we can do about it. Your morning routine: how your smartphone and browser track you You wake up, check the weather, maybe scroll through some reels, like a few posts, and check your commute to see the possible traffic jams. When it comes to social media privacy settings, its pretty straightforward: you tweak them so your parents and colleagues dont get a heart attack from your edgy humor. Our Privacy Checker website can help with that. But it gets trickier with geolocation data, which seemingly everyone wants to collect. Weve already dived deep into how smartphones build detailed profiles on you, and explained what geolocation data brokers are and what happens when their data leaks. Just imagine: about half of popular Android apps ask for your geolocation even though they dont need it. And by default, Chrome and Safari allow cross-domain cookie tracking. This lets advertising networks build detailed user profiles for personalized ads. Pretty much all of your smartphones telemetry is used to create a thorough consumer portrait — no need for customer interviews or focus groups. The best marketer is in your pocket, but its not working for you. What should you do? Normal measures Head to Settings -> Privacy -> Permission Manager. From there, disable background access to the devices location for messaging apps, weather widgets, and any other apps that neednt be tracking your movements in the background. Go to Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Tracking and turn off Allow Apps to Request to Track. Also, in newer iOS versions, under Settings -> Privacy & Security, youll find a Safety Check section. This is a great place to review and adjust app and user access to your data, and even reset all access types in an emergency. You can minimize tracking by following the instructions in our post What Google Ad Topics is, and how to disable it. Enable Prevent cross-site tracking in Safaris privacy and security settings on both your mobile devices and computers. Then, in the advanced settings, turn on Use advanced tracking and fingerprinting protection for all browsing. Paranoid measures Consider getting a Google Pixel and flashing it with GrapheneOS modified firmware that has Google Play Services disabled. Alternatively, research if AOSP firmware is available for your current Android phone. AOSP gives you a bare-bones Android experience where you choose exactly which services to install. Enable Lockdown Mode (found under Settings -> Privacy & Security). While it significantly limits functionality, it drastically reduces your chances of being tracked or having your iPhone compromised. Weve covered this mode in detail in our article Protection through restriction: Apples new Lockdown Mode. Set up a local DNS filter: for example, Pi-hole can block more than 280,000 trackers. Alternatively, you can install browser extensions like Privacy Badger for Firefox, Opera, Edge, and Chrome. Many modern routers also allow you to configure DNS filters that can block most ad network traffic on websites. For more on this, check out our post Why you should set up secure DNS — and how. Hitting the road: the dangers of connected cars Youre ready for your commute, hop into your car, hit the ignition… The system automatically plays your favorite playlist and has your loved ones on speed dial. Convenient, right? Absolutely, but theres a caveat. Modern vehicles can transmit a staggering 25 GB of (your!) data per hour! This creates two categories of problems. First, connected cars are often easier to hack because automotive manufacturers generally have a less-than-stellar approach to cybersecurity. While compromising a cars onboard systems doesnt always lead to theft, many vulnerabilities allow attackers to track you, or even remotely control your vehicle. For instance, in November 2024, a vulnerability was discovered in the Mazda Connect onboard system that allowed attackers to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. Before that, significant vulnerabilities were found in vehicles from Kia, Tesla, Jeep, and dozens of other carmakers. Second, car makers themselves often enthusiastically monitor owners of the vehicles they sell and resell that collected data to data brokers and insurance companies. What to do? Normal measures Dive into your cars smart features menu and disable any that you dont actively use or need. Install an immobilizer that breaks the data bus connection. Some vehicles come with one built-in, but if yours doesnt, consider a third-party immobilizer. Regularly update your ECU firmware through official service centers. This helps patch known vulnerabilities, though its worth noting that new, undiscovered vulnerabilities could emerge with updates. Paranoid measures If youre serious about minimizing data collection, consider buying a used car with minimal data-gathering and transmission capabilities. The absence of its own cellular module (GSM/3G/4G) in the car is a reliable sign that youre on the right track. Embrace public transport or cycling! Lunch time: the hidden dangers of delivery apps That much-anticipated lunch break is the perfect time to unwind… and leave a few more digital footprints. Whether youre ordering coffee through an app or checking in to your favorite bakery on social media, youre constantly adding to your online profile. This includes your location, payment details, and even your order history from delivery apps. Food delivery apps, in particular, are incredibly data hungry. On average, they collect 21 categories of personal data, and a staggering 95% of this information is directly linked to your identity. Much of this data doesnt stay with the delivery service; it gets sent elsewhere. Uber Eats, for instance, shares 12 out of 21 collected data points with partner companies, including your phone number, address, and search and order histories. Whats more, food delivery services can experience data breaches. When that happens, your personal information — everything from your name, phone number and address to your shopping list and order costs — can end up exposed. So, its clear: we need to do something about this too. Normal measures Check your apps location settings. Instead of granting always-on access, switch it to only while using the app. If youre extra cautious, you can turn off location services entirely and manually enter your address. Unless the apps core features genuinely require it, dont let delivery services access your contacts, gallery or messages. Paranoid measures Set up a burner email address and use a different name for all your food orders. Even more radically, consider a second smartphone exclusively for delivery apps and other potentially risky applications. Avoid providing your exact apartment number. Meet the courier at the entrance to the building instead. This can prevent your precise living location from being linked to your spending habits in case of a data breach. Opting for cash payments ensures your purchase details arent stored in a payment system profile. For a drastically reduced digital footprint, skip electronic lunch ordering altogether. Grab some cash, leave your phone at the office, and head to a local eatery. No phone means no GPS tracking, and cash transactions leave no digital trace whatsoever. While this wont make you completely invisible (security cameras are still a thing!), it significantly shrinks your digital footprint. Home sweet home: what your smart devices know about you Theres nothing quite like relaxing at home after a long day. You ask your voice assistant to turn on the lights or recommend a movie. Smart speakers, TVs, robot vacuums, and other gadgets certainly make life easier. However, they also create a host of vulnerabilities for your home network, and often have questionable privacy practices. For instance, in 2023, Amazon faced a $25 million fine for retaining childrens voice recordings and other privacy violations related to Alexa. And its not just corporations misusing voice assistant capabilities. Surveillance cameras, smart plugs, and even smart kettles are frequently hacked — often being roped into botnets for DDoS attacks. There have even been unsettling cases where malicious actors gained access to home cameras, using them for surveillance or pranks like speaking through a compromised baby monitor. Normal measures Dive into your smart home management app (Google Home, Apple Home, the Alexa app, and so on) and look for sections titled Privacy or similar. Turn off options that send your voice recordings for analysis. For Alexa, this is typically Use of Voice Recordings. For Google Assistant, opt out of the quality improvement program. Enable automatic deletion of your voice history. You can also manually clear your query history. With Alexa, just say, Alexa, delete everything I said today. For Google Assistant, manage and delete recordings through your Google account. This significantly reduces the amount of data stored. Every smart speaker has a microphone mute button. If you dont need the assistant, especially during private conversations, hit that mute button. Laptops and some smart cameras come with built-in privacy shutters or covers. Use them! Its a simple way to prevent unwanted peeping. Many smart TVs allow you to disable the collection of viewing statistics (often called ACR). Its a good idea to turn this off to stop your TV from sending reports about every channel you flip through. Modern routers often let you set up a secondary or guest Wi-Fi network. Connect all your IoT devices to that network. This prevents the gadgets from seeing your main computers and phones on your home network. Even if one of your smart devices gets hacked, the attacker wont be able to access your personal data. Plus, it makes it easier to cut off internet access to IoT devices when theyre not in use. Use a strong, unique password for every device. When you first set up a smart device, always change the default login and password. A reliable password manager like Kaspersky Password Manager can help you generate and store secure passwords. Paranoid measures The most drastic option is to completely abandon voice assistants and cloud-based smart home services. Flip those light switches manually, and use mechanical timers for your appliances. The fewer microphones and cameras in your home, the more peace of mind youll have. If you absolutely must have an assistant, consider offline alternatives. There are open-source projects like Mycroft AI that can be configured to process commands locally — without sending data to the cloud. If youre concerned about covert listening, consider purchasing a bug detector – if its allowed in your country. These devices help locate hidden cameras and microphones when, for example, you suspect that a smart light bulb is actually a spy cam. You can also check the four ways to find spy cameras, which we described earlier. During confidential meetings, either unplug suspicious gadgets or remove them from the room entirely. Look for IoT devices that can function autonomously. Examples include cameras with local storage that dont stream to the cloud, or smart home systems built on a local server like openHAB where all your data stays right in your home. Takeaways In todays digital world, your data is a valuable commodity. While its impossible to completely erase your digital footprint, that doesnt mean you should give up doing what you can. By staying aware and implementing smart security measures, you can control a significant portion of your data exposure. The extra protection services found in Kaspersky Premium can further enhance your privacy and payment protection. And our Privacy Checker website offers a wealth of comprehensive guides: these cover privacy settings for smartphones, computers, social networks, apps, and even entire operating systems. Whether youre looking for simple adjustments or more thorough security measures — weve got you covered. While achieving absolute anonymity often requires an extreme, almost paranoid level of effort, while most people dont need anonymity, adopting even the normal measures from our recommendations will significantly limit the ability of both cybercriminals and corporations to track you. What other steps should you take to stay safe? Below are some examples: Should you disable Microsoft Recall in 2025?

Researchers have uncovered multiple campaigns spreading Lumma, Arechclient2, and Rhadamanthys malware by leveraging key features of the AV/EDR evasion framework.
Data exfiltration was the most common malware in Sonatype report, with more than 4,400 packages designed to steal secrets, personally identifiable information, credentials, and API tokens.
The alleged Chinese state-sponsored hacker faces multiple charges, including wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, and unauthorized access to protected computers.
The Iran-linked ransomware-as-a-service group Pay2Key.I2P reportedly told affiliates that they can keep a larger cut of extortion payments if they attack entities within Iran's adversaries.
Moscow-based cybersecurity firm Kaspersky said the campaign has already affected over 100 victims across several dozen Russian organizations, but did not disclose the specific targets.
The United States identified and sanctioned another North Korean involved with the country's IT worker schemes, this time for illicit operations based in China and Russia.
The Justice Department confirmed the arrest in a statement, unsealing a nine-count indictment on Tuesday accusing Xu and co-defendant Zhang Yu of being involved in “computer intrusions between February 2020 and June 2021, including the indiscriminate HAFNIUM computer intrusion campaign that compromised thousands of computers worldwide, including in the United States.”
The attack was described as a “clear example of an organisation linked to the Russian state using ‘proxies’ — in this case British men — to carry out very serious criminal activity in this country on their behalf."
The appellate court on Tuesday sent the case back to the lower court for further consideration, saying it had “abused its discretion” and improperly applied the law when deciding Salvadoran journalists had no right to sue in U.S. courts.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Monday added four security flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation in the wild. The list of flaws is as follows - CVE-2014-3931 (CVSS score: 9.8) - A buffer overflow vulnerability in Multi-Router Looking Glass (MRLG) that could allow remote attackers to cause an
