Data Protection and Privacy
Comply with Data and Privacy Requirements
Fortify Data Protection
Data plays a crucial role in helping you win, serve, and retain customers. Your data may include sensitive information including business proprietary, confidential, and personally identifiable information, as well as consumer preferences and behaviors. The disciplines of data security and privacy are interdependent, not interchangeable. A piece of data might be well-secured, even though the way you use it violates privacy requirements.
Robust data protection and privacy programs are needed to comply with the many legal and regulatory privacy requirements worldwide, and successfully address consumer data security and privacy concerns. Guidehouse takes a data-centric approach when providing organizations with tailored data and privacy solutions. Guidehouse advisors combine industry-specific and privacy regulatory expertise with data protection and cybersecurity knowledge to help clients assess, build, enhance, and maintain their data protection and privacy programs.
The Data Foundation 2022 CDO Survey, conducted in partnership with Guidehouse, highlights the key roles and challenges of CDOs.
