Overview

‘Big Data’ has been the talk of the town in recent years. Organisations have gathered, stored and analysed data to gauge customer behaviour, initiate marketing push, and deliver better goods and services.

Many organisations, including licensed corporations and registered institutions, take data protection for granted or think of it as an IT issue. However, recent high-profile incidents have increased the sensitivity to the security of data held by organisations.
