I totally agree with you.
Unfortunately as of today, people are not putting enough attention on who they give their sensitive information to.
Data breaches are increasing in number, billion of accounts are hacked every day (I just discovered one of my side-accounts got hacked through https://haveibeenpwned.com/ https://haveibeenpwned.com/), nevertheless the majority of us is still not protecting its data properly (perhaps the problem relies on ignoring the problem itself?).
And the situation is even more dramatic in the B2B market: I work in the cybersecurity industry and every day I see companies being hit by these attacks.
That is why, I always advice the people I know to start using privacy-oriented tools that could actually prevent or help preventing something like this to happen.
Like using a password manager (https://1password.com)to https://1password.com)to create strong password and store them, or a secure email system (https://protonmail.com https://protonmail.com), or "simply" by keeping your systems and softwares up-to-date or by backing up your data.
We, at Cubbit, are contributing to the mission of getting back our privacy by building a distributed and encrypted cloud storage service that puts users in control of their data (https://business.cubbit.io https://business.cubbit.io).
- Clo_S 6y agoOooh yes! The 2nd part of this article is about all the tools I use that help with privacy and security, including ProtonMail and Have I Been Pwned! I will look into Cubbit, thank you
- devanon 6y agohttps://privacytoolslist.com/#leak-test-tools https://privacytoolslist.com/#leak-test-tools full list of such tools and many others. And protonmail is anti-privacy. They have access to emails and happy to give access to any data on demand
- wnd_pn 6y agoHi Devanon, why would you say so? Rather than the fact that it's not a decentralized service, it still ticks many of the boxes that make the service very private and secure: 1. it's open source 2. They use end-to-end encryption 3. No personal information is required to create an account Can you explain your position please?
- AzuraJergen 6y agoEven when you do intentionally accept to give your sensitive information to X player, you don't what other players will get their hands on that data, whether through breaches, sale of information, etc.
- wnd_pn 6y agoI don't understand your position, can you explain yourself better?
