In today’s era,  data protection is of paramount importance. Everyone is providing their personal information somewhere on the internet in the form of bank account numbers, name, telephone or address.
Added,  technological innovation offers voice recognition command to its users, which made the 
users more vulnerable towards data breach.  There are scammers which are recording the customer’s 
voice to steal their identity.  According to the Identity Fraud Study,  2017 approximately 15.4 million users 
are the victims of identity theft in 2016.  There is no denial that technological-savvy world has provided 
more opportunities to its users than ever before.  However, that is also another bitter truth that this 
technological innovation has exposed its users to multiple threats such as identity theft, security breach 
and the list goes on.
   
Companies are using leading technological solutions & digital services to promote their products or 
services to a large clientele. Online consumers when sign up online to buy their products, they provide 
their personal details. The companies store the entire customer’s data in their databases. Further, uses 
the data to market their upcoming products via sending them to sneak peek emails. A company failing 
data security measures has a likely possibility of facing data breach which negatively affects their 
businesses.
    
The digital era has given an opportunity for businesses to re-invent their business models, as well as, 
transform customer interaction. Setting out a digital strategy for a business is a painstaking process. Also, 
for the organizations, data protection landscape remains a complex feature. A study conducted by the 
UN has revealed that up to 17% of the global online population is affected by the digital theft. Hence, a 
business needs to focus on digital governance and data protection to save companies from a 
cyber-breach.
   

Why Businesses Need Data Protection Now? 

    
In the digital era, businesses are now more than ever exposed to multiple security threats. To protect

hand over their data to online companies. However, if a company fails to protect the data of its 
customers, it surely loses its brand reputation.
     

2-The Growing Risk of Cyber Security Needs to be

 Urgently Addressed

cyber security needs to be urgently addressed.     
 

3-New Regulatory Requirements Demand Action    

In the digital world, governments are also catching up speed with the technological companies on 
imposing new laws regarding privacy as well as data handling. There is an urgent need for the 
implementation of the regulations in the greatest interest of consumers and companies.

    employees has made an exponential growth in new market segments and in existing markets. 
    Companies need to find ways for secure product development; rethink customer engagement 
    and handle employee interaction. So that data protection can be made sure at the end of a 
    company.
  • Governance is all about establishing rules and processes. However, in a digital economy, 
    decision-making approaches are changing and need to be done carefully. In addition to this, new 
    processes need to be adjusted accordingly.

    designing an operating model which serves the purpose. It is advisable for the businesses to hire services 
    of web and mobile application development personnel to finalize the business model which fulfills the 
    need.   
  • Seek to Change Rules, Processes, and Behaviors
    Governance in the digital era is not majorly via rules. However, it is a combination of processes, rules, 
    values, listening and monitoring services and values. Also, how digital marketing helps in creating value 
    for the business. 

Conclusion

it also exposes new technological risks such as cyber security threat. As companies are competing for toe 
to toe with each other in digital marketing, hence, data protection and digital governance are lagging 
behind in maturity. Now legislators and regulators are introducing new rules and regulations to protect 
the data under the banner of the digital domain. Businesses are in no position to ignore digital 
governance. Therefore it is imperative for businesses to build a comprehensive digital governance and 
data protection strategy. So that digital leaders can reap cost and efficiency gains as well as competitive
