Data is the crown jewel of most organizations—and protecting it is a central responsibility of the CISO. In this episode, we explore the foundational practices for securing sensitive and regulated data, including classification, labeling, access controls, encryption, and secure disposal. You’ll learn how to define data handling requirements by type, user role, business function, and compliance regime, whether you’re protecting customer PII, intellectual property, or financial records.
We also examine how data privacy laws—such as GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA—drive technical and policy decisions around data governance. A CCISO must balance usability and innovation with strict legal requirements, ensuring that privacy is embedded into every aspect of data handling. On the exam, expect questions that challenge your ability to define, enforce, and monitor data security across complex and distributed environments. This episode gives you both the policy and technical fluency to lead data protection with confidence.
