Do you know where your PII data is?

Personally identifiable information (PII) is any data that can be used to identify a person, either on its own or when combined with other personal information.

Many types of data can be considered PII, and the kinds of data that constitute PII can vary from industry to industry, company to company, and individual to individual.

PII data is often the most valuable data within any organization, and is the most targeted by cybercriminals. To protect this data, organizations need a complete understanding of where their sensitive data is, as well as ways to manage that data wherever it resides.

This white paper unpacks all you need to know about PII data and explains why it’s important to discover all the various places it may be within your business.
