Data Protection Services Protect the Sensitive Data in Your Care Problem Optiv Benefits Solution Value Add Partners Data Protection: Always Available. Always Protected. Everywhere. As digital initiatives shift applications and users to the cloud and mobile platforms, modern organizations are faced with even more data growth, in more places. The constant threat of unauthorized access across this expanding attack surface places sensitive consumer and organizational information at higher risk. Knowing what data needs to be protected, controlling its access and siloed organizational ownership of data in general are common challenges in today’s environments from the ground to the cloud. Data protection strategies aid organizations in safeguarding against both internal and external threats, data corruption and data loss. The processes include a mix of managing the movement of data on- and offline, cataloging data assets and making critical business data available in all cases. Did You Know? 0% of breaches are linked to internal actors —Verizon 0% of breaches in 2020 involved personal data —Verizon What is Data Protection and Why Is it Important? Data protection prevents PII and other sensitive information from being stolen and used for fraudulent activities like identity theft, phishing and hacking. Some organizations store this data (names, emails, addresses, health information, phone numbers and credit card or financial information) as well as employee records, customer details, loyalty programs and transactions. Data Protection Law Also called information privacy law, data protection laws exist to protect the personal data of residents of the United States. There’s no overarching US federal legislation impacting data protection. Still, several federal data protection laws exist that are sector-specific: The Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) are just a few. In addition, some US states have adopted data breach notification legislation, including New York’s SHIELD Act, Illinois’s Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), California’s Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) and Virginia’s Consumer Data Protection Act (CDPA).
