When you take a picture, most digital devices store at least some metadata (called EXIF data) associated with that picture. Depending on the device, this may include location coordinates, date, time, device model and manufacturer, and settings for taking pictures. If you posted this image online as-is, snoopers would have full access to the data, causing privacy concerns for both the image owner and the subject.
Fortunately, it's relatively easy to remove metadata from images before publishing them. It's also a good idea to remove potentially sensitive information from images (such as photos) that are stored in unsecured locations. On an unencrypted cloud platform or on the device itself. You can even change settings on your device to store limited metadata by default.
In this post, we'll detail the types of metadata associated with images and why this information should be removed. We've also provided step-by-step instructions for removing metadata from images on a range of devices, and how to change settings to ensure location data isn't saved at all.
What is EXIF metadata and what are the risks?
Most images captured on digital devices contain some metadata. This data is stored in a format called EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format). The data associated with the image depends on the device that captured the image and the program that may modify or edit the image. Some of the information you can expect includes:
Location information in the form of GPS coordinates. Date and time the photo was taken. Device Model and Manufacturer. Settings such as aperture, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity; The name and version of the editing tool used. Stalkers can determine your real-time whereabouts, and government agencies can track your precise location. A well-known example is John McAfee (founder of McAfee Antivirus), who was tracked down by authorities after he posted a photo of him uncleaned online.
