The world of data protection is more complex today than it’s ever been before. Data collection continues to grow and is even more dynamic; because data is so valuable, it moves and evolves as it is used for different purposes from online transactions or web applications, through data marts and warehouses for business reporting, and into big data platforms for in-depth analysis or long-term storage.
Data is used in a variety of ways, thus more and more users and developers are touching this data. Not all think about security, nor do they have the coding skills to build in security from the ground up. Thus, it is even more important that the layer of data protection closest to the data is up to the job in this new and riskier environment.
