Confidential Information Protection

Confidential Information Protection involves safeguarding sensitive data—such as business secrets, personal details, or proprietary research—from unauthorized access or disclosure. It includes implementing measures like secure storage, encryption, access controls, and confidentiality policies to ensure that only authorized individuals can view or handle the information. This helps prevent misuse, theft, or leaks that could harm an organization’s competitive advantage, reputation, or the privacy of individuals involved. Proper protection of confidential information is essential for maintaining trust and complying with legal and ethical standards.
