The fast-evolving data privacy threat landscapehas forced organisations to confront the hard reality of carrying substantial risk, strong enforcement and the need to face many challenges in managing and protecting personal data.
The challenges of protecting personal data include:
- Lack of appreciation for security - perhaps due to the lack of awareness of the legal and financial consequences.
- Poor security hygiene within the organisation, which breeds non-enforcement of compliance security policies.
- Lack of organisational ownership, or accountability, from business owners.
- The sheer amount of data collected and the inability to track down and supress useless data.
