Digital Footprint —

The information detailing an individual’s internet activity when grouped into a single web is known as a digital footprint. They are the digital impressions or traces that users leave behind when they use the World Wide Web, understood and viewed collectively

An email address, a newsletter subscription, membership in a Telegram channel, or a comment on social media could all form part of someone’s digital footprint. And as you might imagine, they often represent enormous data structures. But this type of profiling is an important aspect of digital forensics and can be used in a wide range of investigations to verify identities, as well as embody evidence.

Crucial for running background checks, digital footprinting may be carried out for a number of reasons, important for both social and corporate security. They can ascertain the validity of a given candidate’s experience and credentials, as well as affirm the legitimacy of an organization or company in conducting due diligence. This can be crucial in ensuring that national or municipal bodies do not inadvertently cooperate with potentially threatening bodies or groups.

Digital footprints are also of clear relevance in conducting counter-extremism operations. Probable extremists and terrorists can be readily identified by analyzing digital footprints, while the networks connected to such individuals can be quickly traced and mapped out, purely based on open-source information.
