The cybersecurity industry is constantly striving to stay well prepared and well ahead of new threats. Data protection was in the spotlight all through 2018. It’s a common practice for applications to collect user data like the user’s personal information, location, and other personal preferences. Such important data is vulnerable and, if left unprotected, can be stolen and misused by hackers.
UK enacted the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that forced companies to state and comply with data privacy policies. GDPR gives the users control over their data and the freedom to decide whether the data can be shared or not.
