What does Data Protection mean?
Data protection is the process of protecting data and involves the relationship between the collection and dissemination of data and technology, the public perception and expectation of privacy and the political and legal underpinnings surrounding that data. It aims to strike a balance between individual privacy rights while still allowing data to be used for business purposes.
Data protection is also known as data privacy or information privacy.
Data protection should always be applied to all forms of data, whether it be personal or corporate. It deals with both the integrity of the data, protection from corruption or errors, and privacy of data, it being accessible to only those that have access privilege to it.

The context of data protection varies and the methods and extent also vary for each; there is data protection on the personal level, that of business or public entities, and that of data so highly classified that it should never fall into the hands of others aside from its owners — or in other words, top secret.
