As tech regulation continues to evolve, businesses rely on data analytics to:
?? Meet data protection compliance requirements
??? Customize products to build customer trust
??? Grow revenue
But have you ever wondered what happens to your data once you’ve shared it?
In many cases, consumer data is shared with numerous departments in the same company, where employees can lose control over what happens next. The more channels which share data, the greater the chance of a data breach. Individuals rarely go out to violate privacy law — but accidental mishandling can easily leads to unauthorized data access.
More and more consumers are concerned about data transfers, and this has a significant impact on their buying behavior. Research shows that:
??40% of customers stopped doing business with a company that was not protective of customer data,
??87% of respondents said whether a company was ethical and had a trusted reputation was important to their buying decision.
In our upcoming blog, we’ll cover you can take control of your data, and how companies can improve their security by implementing privacy by design. ?
Until then, check out some more of our posts on the same topic:

The U.K.’s National Cyber Security Centre has launched a new program that will continually scan every internet-connected device hosted in the United Kingdom for vulnerabilities to help the government respond to zero-day threats.
Data protection and regulation: new legislation frameworks approaching on the horizon
A multi-year investigation into TechCrunch’s parent entity Yahoo — looking at compliance with key transparency requirements of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including in relation to cookie banners displayed on its media properties — has taken a step forward today after Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) announced that it has submitted a draft decision to other EU data protection agencies for review.

The growing need for robust user governance capabilities when working in the cloud, especially for larger businesses, comes down to multiple factors:
But how can we overcome the challenges?
?? Use a content collaboration platform with functionalities that suit different departmental needs
?? Ideally, use some kind of centralized monitoring dashboard or interface, which allows administrators to track down the source of cybersecurity events
?? Use a central directory that defines which tools each user can access. This list of tools should include the company’s inter-departmental content collaboration platform.
?When possible, use a content collaboration platform that allows you to establish policies for specific user groups.
