Digital technology is now just a part of life. From online shopping to net banking and business to government infrastructure, digital technology plays a crucial role. Apart from the multiple advantages of digitization, cyber attacks are a black dot. In recent years, we’ve witnessed many high-profile cyber-attacks. In fact, we can say that the number of cyber attacks has grown rapidly in past few years.

To run a business successfully, data is crucial. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a small startup or global conglomerate, data security can make or break an organization.

Unsecured portals, websites, endpoints, networks and smart devices are vulnerable systems to invade by potential hackers. Hence, it’s important that companies review their safety mechanisms for processing and handling data securely in your IT environment.

Data privacy issues can involve a wide variety of information, including: Health care records, Financial transactions and data, Genetic material, Criminal justice records, Residence and personal location information, Location-based services data, Browsing history, Personal communications. Hand-held devices and laptop computers have become popular in the business environment. However, mobile computers are at a much greater risk of data loss through damage and theft.

Irrespective of the type of data breach, your company will certainly experience severe consequences such as downtime and expensive legal fees. It’s therefore imperative that companies employ data security mechanisms and procedures to protect your data against threats to protect your brand reputation.

With data protection becoming such an integral part of company operations, experts have tried to develop new and effective ways to keep sensitive information out of the wrong hands. Proper data security and privacy measures will prevent data leakage while still ensuring that a company runs smoothly.

Many people have this common misconception that only the big organizations, governments, and businesses get targeted by cyber-perpetrators. Well, this is just not true. Data security is not just important for businesses or governments. Your computer, tablet, and mobile devices could be the next target. Usually, common users get targeted by attackers for their sensitive information, such as their credit card details, banking details, passwords, etc.

Companies are accountable for the safety and confidentiality of its client data and employee information. It is a tedious task that’s becoming increasingly difficult as hackers come up with an advanced mechanism to evade safety and security measures.

Yes, data security is essential for every enterprise, irrespective of its size. In this digital world, businesses mostly rely on data storage and transactions to perform certain operations. Usage of data has increased business profitability and efficiency. At the same time, it also has potential security risks that could devastate a company.

India has the second largest number of internet users in the world after China. The total number of internet users by the end of 2020 has been pegged at 400 million.
