Today's rapidly developing digital literacy skills, Generation Z demands their ability to navigate in today's digital world. This research explores data related to digital literacy skills to understand the characteristics of high school (SMA), vocational (SMK) and Madrasah (MAN) students in utilizing digital environ-mental technology which is passing by without being able to stop its progress. Through data analysis, this research aims to provide an overview of data related to how generation Z can navigate the digital world, consume in-formation, think critically, security and use technology for the learning process. The results of this research focus on the characteristics of students with various types of school backgrounds which result in less-than-optimal critical thinking skills and the ability to use technology as a basis for digital literacy. The strengths and weaknesses in digital literacy skills can be measured through 7 indicators and 28 items which are divided into indicators such as information and data digital literacy skills, communication, collaboration, personal security, device and technology security. The results show that all the indicators above have met the valid criteria and have a very high reliability estimate value of 0.730, so the results of this research can provide a data distribution structure for interventions so that they are right on target.
