Data Protection

Data protection refers to measures and practices designed to safeguard data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or destruction. This includes protecting data from various threats, such as cyber-attacks, data breaches, accidental deletion or corruption, and physical disasters. Data protection typically involves implementing security controls and protocols, such as access controls, encryption, firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, and backup and recovery procedures. It also involves ensuring that individuals and organizations handling data are trained and aware of their responsibilities to protect and comply with data protection laws and regulations. Data protection is essential for maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data and building trust with stakeholders who rely on the organization to protect their sensitive information. It is also becoming increasingly important as data privacy laws and regulations continue to evolve and place greater emphasis on data protection and accountability.
