Businesses today are using new and better technologies and moving away from old systems to more modern ones. They’re often using cloud storage, which is like storing stuff online. But this change isn’t finished until they move all their important information to these new systems. This big move of information is called   data migration . It’s super important because it helps things run better and saves money. But doing this isn’t easy — it comes with its own set of risks. Challenges in Data Migration: The sheer volume of data complicates the migration process, and without careful planning, errors like data corruption or loss can occur. Insufficient understanding of the project scope, lack of active participation from businesses, and technical know-how gaps can lead to unexpected costs and setbacks.  Incomplete or inaccurate data backup poses risks of severe breaches , affecting both reputation and legal liabilities. Overcoming these Challenges: To navigate these challenges effe...

Technology is getting better very quickly, and it can make a lot of money for the world. But because it's growing so fast, some people are worried about keeping our information safe.  That’s why organisations around the world are making rules and   guidelines to make sure AI keeps growing while also making sure people’s information stays safe and private.

Picture Cyber security as a superhero watching over our digital world, protecting us from different types of attacks. These attacks can be like annoying computer bugs or really tricky ransomware that locks up important information.   Cyber Security is like a shield protecting our digital world from bad guys   trying to harm our computers, steal our information, or mess with our money. It’s like armour that keeps our systems, data, and money safe from sneaky attacks. The danger from these cyberattacks is bigger than ever before. Just in 2023, the average cost of fixing a cyber breach jumped to a huge USD 4.45 million, which is 15 percent higher than before. Ransomware attacks were even more expensive, costing around USD 5.13 million on average. Plus, people had to pay an extra USD 1.5 million on top of that — almost double from the year before! Technology has changed a lot and brought us great things, but it has also made it easier for people to do bad things online. Things lik...

Introduction Social media sites make money by using algorithms to track what we do and like. They use this information to show us things they think we’ll want to see and buy. This was made possible by their collection and processing of vast amounts of user data without explicit consent.

The Essence of Social Media Privacy Securing social media privacy is an essential aspect of navigating the modern digital landscape . It revolves around safeguarding users’ personal and sensitive information collected, stored, and processed by these platforms. Users willingly share part of this data, while trackers and cookies collect another segment. But ensuring social media privacy is challenging, especially with the consolidation of platform giants, leading to monopolistic markets that stifle competition and limit privacy-focus...

  Owing to these several concerns, the European Union in 2020 proposed the Digital Services Act Package, which includes two important and forward regulations, i.e., The Digital Services Act (DSA) and the Digital Markets Act (DMA), that have two main goals: to create a safer digital space in which fundamental rights of users are protected and foster innovation, growth, and competitiveness in the European markets.  This blog will examine the  Digital Services Act, whom it regulates, and how this Legislation builds a safer Digital Space. Whom Does the Digital Services Act Regulate? Regardless of whether the intermediary service provider is based in the EU or not, the DSA will apply to all suppliers of intermediary services provided to recipients of those services located in the EU. An intermediary service is defined by the DSA as any of the following, and this encompasses  cybersecurity considerations . A conduit service that handles the straightforward transfer of data...
