Data has become a premier resource for businesses in an increasing number of industries. Online platforms have always relied on data as their key asset to generate revenues. In the wake of digital transformation, companies in traditional and highly regulated markets such as finance, health care and energy rely on the analysis and use of data to offer or provide and improve their products and services.
At the same time, employees and customers are increasingly concerned about their privacy in a digital economy. These concerns have triggered legislative initiatives around the world. It has become a major challenge for businesses to comply with data and privacy laws, while maintaining their competitive edge.
