Incognito Mode Browsing History: Incognito Mode (or private browsing) is used to hide information such as browsing history, cookies, and cache. It is primarily designed to prevent any tracking and keep personal information safe. When this mode is used, the browser does not keep records of any websites. Although there are some methods that can detect activities done in Incognito Mode, it should be used carefully with privacy limitations in mind.
through router logs
If a router is installed on a network, then with the help of logs on the router it can be found out which websites have been visited on the network. To go to the router, enter its IP address in the web browser and then login and check the network logs. This allows tracking of website visits, although you will need a more authenticated setup to know that this information belongs to a particular person.
Check DNS Cache
DNS Cache is a place where the record of recently visited websites is saved on your computer. To see this, open Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac) and enter the command “ipconfig /displaydns”. In this you can get details of those websites which have been recently visited, even if they are viewed in Incognito Mode.
Use parental control software
Some parental control software, such as Net Nanny or Kaspersky Safe Kids, can also track browsing done in Incognito Mode. These software run in the background and keep a record of all browsing activities, which can prove useful to parents or administrators.
Google Account Activity
If a person is logged in to his Google Account, his activity may be recorded in Google Activity, even if he is browsing in incognito mode. By going to Google Activity, you can see the list of websites which are saved in your Google account. By doing this you can also find out the browsing history of anyone in incognito mode.
