Privacy Watching: Test Yourself
Don’t just take this quiz for yourself. Take it as though you were someone you know. Then have them take it and compare answer sets. Use this quiz as a conversation starter for more improved device security and privacy guarding at home and work.
1. You Give out Your Online Passwords:
A). Never
B). Only to Spouse/IT Dept
C). To Co-workers and kids for convenience
D). Anyone who asks
Best Answer: A. As countless movies will attest, nobody should have your password but you.
2. Your Online Bank Account Website Password Isn’t Working.
A) You call the bank immediately, checking if the website is working.
B) You figure on checking back later, after work.
C) You check your email to see if any payment notifications or money has been sent out or charged.
D) You Verify on another computer the password does not work, and call the 800 number on the back of your ATM card to freeze charges until the matter is straightened.
Best Answer: A. If the website is working properly, then determine is access attempts before your most recent have been attempted. Go to your bank branch and get a printout of all activity.
3. You have noticed that a lot of mail has not been arriving on time, or comes up a few days later in the delivery box than it normally does, either mashed together or ripped.
A) You talk to your postman about the condition of your mail.
B) You figure a new postal carrier is getting the hang of the route.
C) You ask neighbors if their mail is getting through all right.
D) You temporarily have all mail held at the post office, where a much higher volume is collected.
Best Answer: A. The postal carrier must be confronted with evidence of mail tampering. Inquiry to the postal inspector through USPS.com is next if the problem continues.
4. A Co-Worker who plays online role playing games after work and during lunch in his cubicle complains his computer is working slower than usual. He mentions he won’t call the IT department, because he doesn’t want them tracking his online activity. He lets you know he’ll be using your name and password to access the applications from the network drive, and storing the job files on the storage drive mapped to your username.
A) You Notify IT and your boss, because now your work and accounts are compromised.
B) You give your buddy a few days to clean it up, then ask him for an update.
C) You give him the passwords because otherwise the data will be lost for his share of the project.
D) You don’t think about it any more. It’s the company’s problem.
Best Answer: A. Any other answer opens the door to personal culpability and liability in case of work product loss and lack of confidentiality in the computer network.
5. You think your house may have been broken into. You check your desk and computer area to make sure your information and files are safe.
A) Everything’s fine. Your computer’s gone, but no matter. Your External Drive with encryption key is where you hid it.
B) Your Hard Drive has been accessed but you don’t figure this out until the next day, when goods ordered in Czechoslovakia with your credit line have already shipped.
C) Your TV is missing and some vandalism occurred. They don’t think your computer is worth stealing.
D) Your desk and files and records are such a mess you wouldn’t know what was missing if you turned the entire desk and file cabinet inside out .
Best Answer: A. Separate devices with scanned records and security access like browser passwords are best left to a remote drive that can be hidden if guests are inn the home or you spend extended time away from the house. Scanned files and receipts are in and not piled in desk drawers for anyone to steal and replace. Desktops and laptops can be scanned and their IP addresses compromised. Reset wi-fi connections and run antivirus scans on the computers.
