1. Data Collection
A. Source Validation:
a. Ensure data is collected from trusted and verified sources.
b. Avoid using publicly available data that may contain malicious or biased content.
B. Data Licensing and Compliance:
a. Verify licensing terms for third-party datasets.
b. Ensure data collection complies with laws like GDPR, HIPAA, or CCPA.

2. Data Storage
A. Encryption:
a. Encrypt data at rest using strong algorithms (e.g., AES-256).
b. Use secure backups with encryption to prevent data loss or theft.
B. Access Control:
a. Implement role-based access control (RBAC) to limit access to sensitive data.
b. Enforce the principle of least privilege.
C. Data Segmentation:
a. Store sensitive data separately from non-sensitive data.
b. Use pseudonymization or tokenization to protect identifiers.

3. Data Preprocessing
A. Data Anonymization:
a. Remove or mask personally identifiable information (PII) to protect privacy.
b. Use synthetic data when possible to reduce risks from real-world sensitive data.
B. Validation:
a. Ensure the integrity of data by checking for anomalies, duplicates, or corrupted
entries.
b. Use hash functions to verify data authenticity.
C. Bias Mitigation:
a. Analyze and clean data to remove biases that could lead to unethical or unfair model
behavior.

4. During Model Training


A. Data Integrity Verification:
a. Use checksums or digital signatures to ensure data has not been altered.
b. Regularly audit the data pipeline for unauthorized changes.
B. Poisoning Attack Prevention:
a. Implement robust validation to detect malicious data samples.
b. Use outlier detection algorithms to identify and exclude suspicious inputs.
C. Secure Environments:
a. Conduct training in secure, isolated environments.
b. Use cloud security best practices if leveraging cloud-based resources.

5. Data in Transit
A. Secure Communication Channels:
a. Use Transport Layer Security (TLS) for data transmitted between systems.
b. Avoid sending sensitive data over unsecured networks.
B. API Security:
a. Secure data transfers via APIs with authentication, authorization, and rate limiting.

6. Monitoring and Maintenance


A. Activity Logging:
a. Maintain logs of all data access, modifications, and transfers.
b. Use these logs for auditing and identifying anomalies.
B. Regular Audits:
a. Periodically review datasets for integrity and quality.
b. Reassess compliance with privacy and security standards.
C. Dynamic Updating:
a. Continuously improve datasets by replacing outdated or invalid data.
b. Retrain models on updated data to address emerging threats or inaccuracies.

7. Incident Response and Recovery


A. Backup and Recovery:
a. Implement a robust backup system to recover from accidental or malicious data loss.
b. Test recovery processes regularly.
B. Incident Response Plan:
a. Establish procedures for handling data breaches or poisoning attacks.
b. Include steps for identifying compromised data and retraining models as necessary.

8. Data Governance
A. Data Ownership and Accountability:
a. Clearly define ownership and responsibility for data security.
b. Use data governance tools to enforce policies and standards.
B. Third-party Risk Management:
a. Audit third-party datasets for security risks.
b. Enforce agreements ensuring data protection.
