The History of Data Privacy Day and Becoming a Privacy Champion

shared by the National Cyber Security Alliance

As we gear up for Data Privacy Day, January 28, let’s go over a bit of the history.

Your personal privacy has always been important. But in recent years, Digital Data Privacy has become even MORE important. Looking in windows, through trash, and over shoulders has been enhanced by hackers and bad actors which compromises all of our digital information. Therefore, an even greater need for awareness and protection has come to the forefront. Enter, Data Privacy Day [with a campaign to become Data Privacy Week!]
