August 2019 Newsletter

We live in a connected world where sensitive data has effectively become currency. As such, understanding how to protect that information has become an imperative part of our daily routines. This month’s newsletter covers the importance of data classification, then dives into what cybercriminals do with stolen data, and wraps up with compliance regulations and their impact on our lives both professionally and personally.

 

  1. What are the three basic classifications of data?(public, internal, restricted)
  2. Name three of four things cybercriminals can do with stolen data. (sell it, launch phishing campaigns, steal identities, attack other accounts)
  3. This serves as a learning tool to inform individuals of the rules, guidelines, and laws that impact organizations. (compliance training)
  4. What type of data is covered by PCI DSS? (cardholder data)
  5. To help protect the PII our organization handles, you should always follow these. (policies)
