The Ultimate Guide to Data Protection
2024 edition
Overview
Data is the lifeblood of many organisations, which is why protecting it at all costs is so important.
Not only is data protection essential from a business operational sense, but legally many laws say data must be protected as well.
Data Protection is a term often used in a legal context (such as the General Data Protection Regulation) and involves the security, privacy, availability, and integrity of data.
Companies should engage in the concept of data protection by mitigating cyber risk and utilising strategies to keep their data safe and secure.
