What is also worrying is that one-third of Indians store important information, including bank account details, debit card and credit card details, ATM PIN numbers, Aadhar card, PAN number, on their mobile phones or computers and e-mails, according to a survey by Local Circles.
Data on mobile The study found that the same 11% of people keep important details about their personal finances in their phone’s contact list. Nowadays when you normally download and install an app based on an entertainment feature on your mobile, it asks for access to the data in the contact list on your mobile. If so, this is seen as a very dangerous thing to do. This is because it allows you to access your personal data without even knowing it.
Passwords Sharing Studies also show that almost one-third share their sensitive passwords with 1 or more members of their family. The Per Unisys Security Index 2020 report states that fraud through unauthorized access to an individual’s debit card and credit card is a major concern for users.
How many people study? LocalCircles conducted the study on 24,000 people in 393 districts across the country. 63% of respondents in this survey are men. 37% are women. Of the total respondents, 45% were from metro / tier 1 cities. 31% of respondents were from Tier 2 cities and 24% were from Tier 3 cities.
Who is who and where? Among the respondents, 7% said they store important bank account details such as bank account details, debit card, credit card, CVV, ATM passwords, Aadhar card, ban card by phone, 15% by mail or their computer, and 11% by mobile, email or computer.
The study found that 33% kept 21% of all important information about their finances in memory and 39% kept it in paper form. 7% of them said they did not want to comment. So a total of 33% of people store their important documents on mobile phones, mail or computer.
