Avast blog: Covid tracking apps update

After the Covid-19 outbreak, several groups got going on developing various smartphone tracking apps, as I wrote about last April. Since that post appeared, we have followed up with this news update on their flaws. Given the interest in using so-called “vaccine passports” to account for vaccinations, it is time to review where we have come with the tracking apps. In my latest blog for Avast, I review the progress on these apps, some of the privacy issues that remain, and what the bad guys have been doing to try to leverage Covid-themed cyber attacks.
