Common Leaks in Online Privacy - Infographic1. COMMON LEAKS
IN ONLINE PRIVACY
Many common aspects of our online lives are susceptible
to privacy breaches. Ensure you are aware of the four most
common weaknesses in online privacy to protect yourself.
PASSWORDS
PLAINTEXT
By using password-free sign up, Semaphor
circumnavigates the likelihood of an attack.
The tool generates random, multiword
passphrases for users and will not store
passwords or answers to hints on its server.
Despite increased requirements
for password types, individuals
still run the risk of password
hacks via phishing scams,
spam and hacker guesswork.
Semaphor encrypts data before it leaves
an individual’s computer so that if a server
is compromised the encrypted data collected
would have no value to the hacker.
Many websites save everything
in plaintext including: passwords,
email addresses, geolocation and
even financial or health information.
If a system is compromised,
consumer information is visible.

BROWSERS
Semaphor cannot be accessed through the
browser, so team members who are slack on
privacy won’t threaten your communications.
As a full-scale application, Semaphor
communicates solely and directly with
the server, dramatically reducing the
likelihood of a privacy compromise.
Whether it’s your browser, security
settings, plugins, extensions,
website code or cookies, cyber
criminals can often infiltrate your
computer with just one click.

EMAIL
With no email invites or automatically
generated digests, Semaphor cuts out this
hacker’s paradise. It protects users from
“man-in-the-middle” attacks, where an attacker
surreptitiously relays or adjusts conversation
between two users who believe they are
communicating directly.
Between malware, phishing
scams and weak passwords,
email is one of the most
vulnerable methods of
business communication.
