63% of respondents claim not to have two-factor authentication on their social networks, according to a survey conducted by Acens, of Telefónica Tech, on the occasion of the International Data Protection Day, celebrated on January 28.
100% of the respondents affirm they understand what this double identity certification entails.
50% are unaware if an online store encrypts their data when making a purchase. 'This shows that users are still not aware of the need to check for https and a lock in the URL as a measure of information encryption when making online purchases,' the survey authors point out.
37% claim to have suffered data theft: 'On a bitcoin transfer page, they tried to get in from Senegal, if I remember correctly, although there was no money. And on Twitter, they have tried to get in about 15 times, but have not succeeded,' says a user.
84% of survey participants claim not to know how to delete their data from a website. However, this does not seem to worry them as none of the respondents has searched for example their social security number on Google, to check if their information appears on the internet.
Finally, 50% of users would not know how to file a complaint if they believe their privacy rights have been violated. 'Ah yes! You go to the police and they help you. Because it came out in Informe Semanal that there was already a section dedicated to this,' says a user.
From Acens, they remind that online stores should have the SSL certificate, which means that in browsers (Google Chrome, Explorer, Safari, Firefox, etc.) a padlock symbol will appear. In this way, both the company's and customers' data will be safe and protected from cyber attacks.
