Privacy vs Security

Do you know the difference between privacy and security? Understanding how these two concepts work together, and how they differ, is key to improving our overall defense. From policies and compliance regulations, to using common sense and staying alert, privacy and security have one common goal in mind: guaranteeing the confidentiality, integrity, and available of sensitive data. Achieving that goal is a responsibility we all share!

  1. People who have been granted access, from sensitive data to controlled rooms and buildings, are considered to be what? (Insider Threats)
  2. When someone moves on from an organization, they must go through this process. (Offboarding)
  3. What does HIPAA stand for? (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
  4. How many people were impacted by the Equifax data breach? (Over 143 million)
  5. Full names, credit card numbers, and date of birth are examples of what?(PII or personally identifiable information)
