Every day computer users share photos, word processing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, audio clips, and other types of digital files with people around the world. What you may not know is that these files may inadvertently include private or sensitive information about you or your organisation in the form of metadata. To help you maintain both your privacy and security, we will explain what metadata is, how you can find and remove it, and some steps to take to protect yourself.
