Summary/Abstract: In this paper we will try to highlight some important aspects of the personal data security in the Internet environment. It seems that we are completely defenseless from the aggressors and the sad thing is that the software and hardware manufacturers cooperate closely with a specific category of such aggressors and create backdoors in the computer systems. This paper, considering the bibliographic references mostly outside the mainstream media, will demonstrate that the PC is electronic equipment that provides a low security level of personal or sensitive data. Maybe in a short time we will use again the old traditional machines (typewriters).
