<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Abstract: In today’s interconnected world, our digital activities leave behind traces—fragments of information that can be pieced together to reveal insights beyond what individuals intended to share. In the context of
privacy, these traces empower adversaries to perform large-scale analyses, uncovering patterns and personal details that compromise anonymity and reveal sensitive data. Similarly, in the domain of mobile networks, traces serve as critical indicators for identifying
vulnerabilities in network components, such as weaknesses in implementations or the configuration of networks. This lecture delves into the dual role of traces: as a tool for adversaries to breach privacy and as a means for researchers to uncover and mitigate
security flaws.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
