Privacy and personal data protection have become a cornerstone in the regulatory landscape of businesses, as the importance of safeguarding personal data has increased. On one hand, there is a high economic risk associated with experiencing a breach of personal data. Additionally, reputational damage can have a defining impact on society's trust in the company's services. Moreover, the relevance of personal data in a company's operations stems from technology, which has become an essential part of every organization's processes, and in some cases, a core part of their main activities. Considering that personal data is invariably present in technology, its protection has become paramount.
It is essential for every company, based on its own needs, to have a policy for protection against cybersecurity risks, along with a privacy and personal data protection program that complies with the requirements established by law. These measures should foster a culture of prevention that safeguards the personal data of their clients.
