Why
DATA PRIVACY is more important than ever.
BY VIKASH LALSING
WHAT IS DATA PRIVACY? It can be difficult to understand what data privacy is in the digital world and its importance.
Let’s imagine that in our daily lives, we are constantly followed by a stranger during any activity, such as a visit to the doctor, or listening in on conversations between family and friends. Our privacy determines our choice in what we want to keep private, semi-public, and public. In other words, data privacy determines who we are in the digital world and what we choose to disclose. Its importance is on equal terms with our daily, physical lives.
