Think of handling personal data like handling radioactive material.
Leaks
If you’ve got people moving it around all over the place, that increases the chance of them to leak that material. The same thing applies to personal data. Try not to move it around too much because you run the risk of data leaks.
Disposal
Also, think about how you’re going to dispose of that radioactive material. You’re not just going to throw it away in a trash can, you need to dispose of it with care. The same goes for sensitive data.
Stockpiling
Don’t just gather as much radioactive material as possible. Stockpiling that is a huge risk! The same goes for data. You shouldn’t just be collecting large amounts of data, only collect what you need.
Handle with Care
Finally, you wouldn’t want any Jane or Joe handling that radioactive material, you need someone who is trained and experienced to handle it. The same applies to your organization. Have trained professionals working with that data.
