Privacy vs Data Protection vs Data Security by Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E100

Privacy vs Data Protection vs Data Security by Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E100

Punit Bhatia, a privacy and AI expert discusses the differences between privacy, data protection, and data security.

Privacy is a choice to be left alone and is a fundamental right in many countries. Data protection is about approaches taken to ensure privacy and personal data protection, while data security is about protecting digital information from corruption, damage, or theft. These three terms are interrelated, as they all aim to safeguard data from misuse or harm.

To ensure privacy, data protection, and data security, legal frameworks, ethical principles, and technical measures must be used. Practical tips include encrypting data, updating software regularly, avoiding phishing and malware attacks, using a virtual private network, backing up data, and educating oneself and others.

Ganesh first realized his passion for digital security in college, working in the Purdue University cybersecurity lab. After earning his master's in Computer Science in 1997, he immediately got to work in the industry. Over the next two decades he worked his way to top-level security and engineering roles at companies like Yahoo!, LinkedIn, and Atlassian, as well landing a spot on the Forbes Technology Council.  

 

In 2017 Ganesh launched his first company, an AI-powered cybersecurity startup called Avid Secure, which was acquired after only 18 months. But despite his success, he wasn’t content to rest on his laurels. He realized that in order to meet the challenges that lie ahead in the field of cybersecurity, the industry needed a paradigm shift. So he launched a new company, Anzenna, with a simple yet powerful goal: to reimagine cybersecurity by empowering every employee with simple and effective security tools. They may be just getting started, but if Ganesh’s past performance is any indicator, the world of digital security is about to change forever.

Privacy Compliance in Startups with Nia Castelly and Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E087 (Full episode)

Privacy Compliance in Startups with Nia Castelly and Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E087 (Full episode)

Privacy compliance is crucial for startups. Failing to comply with privacy regulations can result in legal and financial repercussions, damage to reputation, and loss of customer trust. Startups must therefore take steps to ensure they are meeting relevant privacy regulations and standards. 

Take a listen to conversation between Nia Castelly and Punit Bhatia for more about privacy compliance in context of start-ups.   

 

KEY CONVERSATION POINTS  

  • GDPR In One Word is “complicated”  
  • Challenges related to laws for companies  
  • Privacy compliance should be a number one priority 
  • Creating culture of privacy 
  • AI and Privacy compliance  

 

ABOUT THE GUEST

As our digital ecosystem grows, companies are facing new privacy regulations globally– in the US alone this year, 5 different states are adding or amending data privacy laws that businesses must adhere to. For instance, the recently announced NIST AI RMF 1.0 framework is anticipated to significantly influence the development and use of AI technologies (like ChatGPT) and will mirror the impact of the GDPR and CCPA on companies.  

   

Nia is uniquely positioned as an attorney and startup founder backed by Google to talk about the changing privacy regulatory landscape and innovative tech solutions needed to streamline compliance across digital products.

Privacy Compliance in Startups with Nia Castelly and Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E087 (Trailer)

How to manage challenge of multiple privacy laws with Nia Castelly and Punit Bhatia in The FIT4Privacy Podcast E087 (trailer) 

  

Firstly, startups must understand the applicable privacy laws and regulations in their jurisdiction. For example, in the United States, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) are two important regulations to be aware of. Startups must ensure that they are complying with the requirements of these regulations, such as providing clear and concise privacy notices, obtaining appropriate consent for data collection and processing, and implementing adequate data security measures. 


Secondly, startups should consider adopting privacy best practices. This could include conducting regular privacy impact assessments, implementing privacy by design principles, appointing a data protection officer, and providing privacy training to staff. Startups should also regularly review and update their privacy policies and procedures to ensure they are keeping pace with changes in the regulatory landscape and their own data processing activities. 


Finally, startups must be transparent with their customers about their data collection and processing practices. This means being clear about what data is being collected, how it will be used, who it will be shared with, and how long it will be retained. Startups must also provide customers with options for controlling their data, such as the ability to opt-out of marketing communications or to request deletion of their personal information. 


Overall, privacy compliance is a critical consideration for startups, and should be integrated into all aspects of the business from the outset. By taking a proactive approach to privacy, startups can build trust with their customers, avoid legal and financial risks, and differentiate themselves from competitors.

SIM Swap and its privacy risks - with Haseeb Awan and Punit Bhatia in the FIT4PRIVACY Podcast E086 S4 (Trailer)

SIM Swap and its privacy risks - with Haseeb Awan and Punit Bhatia in the FIT4PRIVACY Podcast E086 S4 (Trailer)

One common way that hackers can gain access to people's personal information is by targeting their SIM cards. By hacking into a phone's SIM card, fraudsters can gain access to a wealth of sensitive data, including the person's phone number, account details, and other personal information.  

To address this issue, many companies are working to improve their security measures and provide better care for their customer's accounts. One way they are doing this is by implementing stronger authentication protocols, such as two-factor authentication, to ensure that only authorized users have access to sensitive data.

 

Despite these efforts, data breaches and fraud remain a common occurrence. It is important for people to be aware of the risks associated with using apps and other digital services, and to take steps to protect themselves. This includes being careful about the information they share online, regularly updating their passwords and security settings, and reporting any suspicious activity to the relevant authorities.

 

In conclusion, the issue of privacy and data security is a complex one that requires ongoing attention and care from both individuals and companies. While there are many challenges and risks associated with using digital services, there are also many opportunities to protect ourselves and our data by staying informed, being vigilant, and taking proactive steps to safeguard our information.
