Digital risks can be considered threats, of varying levels of danger, which can manifest themselves during or following a digital activity and which are likely to affect the user or to have harmful consequences for others. These risks cover a wide variety of domains that we have grouped into nine types, following a preliminary study carried out collectively within the framework of the eRISK project by means of a thematic exploration in the major media. This step allowed us to develop this typology, which we then took a step back from and backed up with the scientific literature. We have thus identified technical, informational and political, cognitive, psychosocial, health, socioeconomic, ethical, legal and ecological risks. Here, we propose to briefly characterize these different types of risks.
