Here is something that I worry about all the time, do you? I'm talking about keeping my online details on lock. Well, I'm hoping that this can help you. A recent study by Hypernode spills the beans and let all of us New Yorkers know that we are doing a really good job when it comes to caring about our privacy in cyberspace.

According to the study, New Yorkers are not just talking the talk  but we are also walking the walk when it comes to googling all things that have to do with data security. There were over 220,000 searches each month on data privacy topics. That amounts to 1,133 searches for every 100,000 of us! That is putting in some major digital detective work!

Virginia and Washington are not too far behind, which goes to show that the most of the East Coast vibe is all about having a privacy vibe. They are people that like to surf the web like it is a treasure hunt, with thousands of searches each month to keep their digital selves safe and sound.

It's not ALL about the East Coast because other states like Nevada, Texas, Utah, Oregon, California, Illinois, and North Carolina are also getting in on the action. They are just a few of the states that are showing us what online security life is all about.

It's probably not a bad idea for everyone to keep the digital privacy party going, especially in New York! Because when it comes to protecting our online lives, we don't want anybody messing with our data security game!
