Data Privacy: Protecting

Personal Information in
a Digital World
Understanding the
importance and challenges
of data privacy
What is Data Privacy?

Data privacy deals with the proper handling of sensitive


and personal data.

Key Areas
1. Personal data (PII)
2. Financial data
3. Intellectual property

Objective: Meeting regulatory requirements and


protecting data integrity.

Key Components of Data Protection


4. Data Protection (Backup/Restore)
5. Data Security (Prevent threats)
6. Data Privacy (Control data sharing)

Goal: Ensuring availability, confidentiality, and


immutability.
Data Sovereignty

The laws of the nation in which digital data is stored


apply to it.

Challenges
1. Complexities of keeping data within a country’s
borders.
2. Dependence on cloud service providers and their
compliance with local laws.

Implications
3. Legal risks if data is stored outside the country
without appropriate agreements.
4. Increased focus on service-level agreements
(SLAs) with cloud providers to ensure
compliance with data sovereignty laws.
Importance of Data Privacy
Business Asset Management
1. Data is a valuable asset.
2. Transparency builds trust.

Regulatory Compliance
3. Ensures businesses meet legal obligations.
4. Non-compliance leads to financial and
reputational loss.

Data Privacy vs Data Security

Data Privacy: Governs how data is collected, shared,


and used.

Data Security: Protects data from compromise


(hackers, insiders).

Key Distinction: Security doesn’t automatically


ensure compliance with privacy laws.
Global Legal Variations
GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA
1. No universally precise definition of data privacy.
2. Laws rely on ‘reasonable’ data practices.

Best Practices for Data Privacy


1. Encryption: Protect data in storage and
transit.
2. Access Controls: Limit who can view or
use personal data.
3. Regular Audits: Check data practices
regularly for compliance.
4. User Education: Inform users on how to
protect their data.
Conclusion

Key Takeaways: Data privacy is critical for


personal security, business trust, and legal
compliance.

Adopt strong data privacy measures beyond legal


requirements to build trust and security.
