What is the National Privacy Test?

The National Privacy Test is an online tool for measuring your awareness of various online privacy and security risks. The test consists of 23 questions on daily digital life, online privacy, and cybersecurity.

Since the test’s launch in 2020, almost 140,000 people from 192 countries have taken part. The test has uncovered interesting differences between countries, ages, and genders.

The survey is back for its fourth year — and your answers could help shape the world’s understanding of online privacy awareness.

Once you’ve completed the survey, you get a score out of 100% with a short paragraph about your level of knowledge. You can also share your score on social media and encourage others to take part.

Who is the National Privacy Test for?

The National Privacy Test is for anyone looking to discover how much they know about online privacy and security. The cybersecurity landscape is always changing, with new threats frequently emerging and existing threats constantly evolving.

With the majority of our lives happening online, keeping track of digital privacy and security risks is paramount. The National Privacy Test gives you the chance to find out if you know enough to prevent cybersecurity incidents.

After finishing the test, you’ll be able to see your correct and incorrect answers and note the areas you may want to improve. After all, knowing enough about cybersecurity threats is the most effective way to avoid them.
