Data security concerns safeguarding information from unauthorized access which could result in identity theft, fraudulent credit card charges or privacy intrusion. This means encrypting the data, using access control, and implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) to ensure that only authorized employees are able to access sensitive information such as passwords or personal identification numbers (PINs).
On the other the other hand privacy protection concerns individuals’ right to have control over their personal information stored, used, shared, and transferred. This includes allowing users to request deletion, modify their information, as well as control the method of use. It also requires compliance with the regulations like GDPR and CCPA.
Despite the difference between security and privacy both are crucial to the operations of an organization. When companies expose sensitive information or breach data, they risk losing the trust of their customers. A strong data privacy practice and framework can cut down on the number breaches, allowing companies to avoid costly fines, penalties, and lawsuits.
The first step to ensure both data privacy and security is to define and categorize all sensitive information a company holds that includes personally identifiable information (PII) and non-PII. This process can be helped by conducting formal risk assessments as well as conducting regular security audits. Utilizing a tool for data discovery is also a great way to find out the information available and how employees access it. A policy framework that covers all aspects of the organization’s collection, storage and sharing of data can make data privacy and security easier to manage.
