Yes, it’s possible for hackers to access your laptop camera remotely. But don’t worry! You can bypass this.
That tiny camera staring back at you from your laptop screen may be great for video chats and online meetings, but did you know that it could also be a window for someone to peek into your personal life without you knowing?
Your laptop camera can be accessed by malicious software, called malware. Hackers use tricks like phishing emails or fake software updates to get you to download this malware. Once installed, they can turn on your camera without the little light even blinking. This means they could potentially see and record whatever you’re doing in front of your computer.
