Privacy vs security…isn’t it the same thing?



Not really. But they are cousins. Data privacy is focused on the use and governance of personal data—things like putting policies in place to ensure that consumers’ personal information is being collected, shared and used in appropriate ways. Security focuses more on protecting Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of data. While security is necessary for protecting data, it’s not sufficient for addressing privacy.
