Many security experts excel at working with traditional technologies but fall apart in utilizing newer data privacy techniques to balance compliance requirements and the business utility of data. This book will help readers grow out of a siloed mentality and into an enterprise risk management approach to regulatory compliance and technical roles, including technical data privacy and security issues.
The book uses practical lessons learned in applying real-life concepts and tools to help security leaders and their teams craft and implement strategies. These projects deal with a variety of use cases and data types. A common goal is to find the right balance between compliance, privacy requirements, and the business utility of data.
This book reviews how new and old privacy-preserving techniques can provide practical protection for data in transit, use, and rest. It positions techniques like pseudonymization, anonymization, tokenization, homomorphic encryption, dynamic masking, and more. Topics include
- Trends and Evolution
- Best Practices, Roadmap, and Vision
- Zero Trust Architecture
- Applications, Privacy by Design, and APIs
- Machine Learning and Analytics
- Secure Multiparty Computing
- Blockchain and Data Lineage
- Hybrid Cloud, CASB, and SASE
