Cybersecurity videos trend across social media platform Tik Tok
By Leandra Monteiro
Technology today is evolving rapidly, enabling progress in ways which were not possible before. Facilitating the rate at which the industry is developing is the rise of TikTok, with over 1 billion monthly users, enabling individuals to share and educate everything there is to know about technology and emerging trends.
Therefore, experts at Reboot SEO Agency felt inspired to uncover the most popular tech trends on TikTok that we most want to learn about. Immediate findings reveal cyber security to be a dominating theme.
Reboot SEO Agency found that 44% of the most popular tech videos are linked to cybersecurity. Cybersecurity aims to reduce the risk of cyber-attacks and protects against unauthorised exploitations of systems, networks, and technologies. It would appear ‘The Dark Web’ drives the most views on TikTok with 1.1 billion – the part of the internet that isn’t visible to search engines and requires the use of a specific browser called Tor to be accessed.
Following not too far behind is ‘Coding’, with nearly 1 billion views, highlighting tech users’ eagerness to become proficient in programming. It’s evident cybersecurity as an umbrella topic to be popular, with global average searches per month peaking at 419,400.
The data below lists the overall top 10 most viewed tech videos on TikTok:
Rank | Tech Theme | Views on TikTok |
#1 | Bitcoin | 5,700,000,000 |
#2 | Virtual Reality | 4,500,000,000 |
#3 | 5G | 1,500,000,000 |

#10 | Cyber security | 349,100,000 |
The tech trend with the most views on TikTok is Bitcoin, with 5.7 billion views! Most consumers are using bitcoin because of the high convenience and ease of ultimate security that blockchain technology offers. Cryptocurrency is the future of finance and money, completely transforming how we think about the global economy. Just recently, Bitcoin crashed, dropping by thousands of dollars in the space of just a few minutes, meaning it’s all the more important to continually learn about the best and ‘safest’ ways of investing in Bitcoin.
Reboot SEO Agency’s co-founder and managing director Naomi Aharony shared, “As a marketing and SEO based company, it is crucial for us to closely follow the changing landscape of tech, and how we can incorporate it in our industry. Even just learning simple PC tips could save us crucial time when approaching deadlines”.
