What is Data Protection?
Data Protection refers to the process of keeping important data safe. In simple it refers to protecting data against unauthorized access which leads to no corruption, no compromise, no loss, and no security issues of data. Data protection is allowed to all forms of data whether it is personal or data or organizational data.
For Example: A bank has a lot of customers, so the bank needs to protect all types of data including self-bank records as well as customer information from unauthorized accesses to keep everything safe and to ensure everything is under the control of bank administration.
