User data protection

Now more and more information appears about user profile leaks. Moreover, the number of lost profiles is measured in hundreds of thousands. It is often said that this is only 1.2, N%, but what is for those who are in these percentages and nothing prevents you from becoming one of these users.



In the media, the Internet, with posters of advertising, we are increasingly seeing the term - computerization . In our country, a rather slow pace, but the possibilities of using public services via the Internet are beginning to appear. A vivid example is the possibility of obtaining a passport.

Computer - makes life easier for people, less time is required for processing documents, less time is required for standing in lines, but you have to pay for everything. And here we pay the security of personal data. YOU just imagine that you wake up in the morning go to Lenta.ru or Google News and find out that 1% of your tax profiles are leaked. And you can get into this 1%.

The military commissariat prompted me to such thoughts, where all the “profiles” of users stand in large boxes and to receive each piece of paper you have to go through many cabinets, and from computerization tools only a computer in the archive is available. Enter the name and surname - you get the number of the box and the shelf, that is, the place where you can find the "profile". With this method of storage, it will simply be physically impossible to carry 100,000 “profiles”. Yes, from the point of attack the protection of the minimum, but the mass leak simply can not be! There are no more than 100 profiles in each box, and such a box weighs quite a lot.

Thus, it turns out that information about the entire male population of the country under lock and key in the literal sense of the word, and I think everyone knows that the military registration and enlistment office's profile is quite extensive.

It turns out that all this burden of paper, the queue helps us in confidentiality and reduces the likelihood that our personal data will be from third parties.

Who has any opinion on this?
