Topic: Cybersecurity in Data Management at Workplace

With the ubiquitous and pervasive application of information technology in business organizations' environments, a significant and sensitive amount of data is generated and stored on cloud computing platforms, creating substantial Cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities. As a data manager is a Company with significant duties including establishing and revising policies, creating protocols, and assisting the Management Information Systems with reports and collections and, data collection and security roles, accommodating troubleshooting issues, there are significant IT-based challenges on Cybersecurity that I have experienced. Cybersecurity in a workplace occurred in a twofold dimension including the growing data sophistication and data security and privacy compromise due to Cyberattacks and Cybersecurity issues. In the data management role and data manager, collecting and securing data is prone to data breaches and cyber-attackers aging access to sensitive data. In my experience as a data manager in an organization, there was a significant consumer data leakage leading to external gain to consumers’ sensitive information such as consumers’ email addresses, names, dates of the mother, and other personal data. Admittedly, Cybersecurity is a fundamental IT-based challenge facing employees, organizations, and stakeholders that require an effective platform for data security and privacy concerns. The topic, Cybersecurity in Data Management at Workplace resonates with fundamental articulation on IT-based challenges in the management information system. Therefore, addressing the topic in detail will offer effective recognition of the IT-based challenges and pragmatic solutions to ensure a secured data management system.
