Think about the last time you flew. Chances are, you didn’t give a lot of thought to the engine of the plane. Yet, if that engine had malfunctioned, if something had gone wrong, then you certainly would have known about it. The engine is the hidden core of the plane, and it requires constant maintenance, updates and oversight. When you step foot on that giant steel tube, you put your trust in the airline and the pilot. If something goes wrong, you’ll likely be in serious trouble.
Everything that is true about an airplane engine is true about data security, at least according to Scott Taylor, vice president and chief privacy officer at Hewlett-Packard. He fully understands that data security is more important than ever, and, especially in light of recent high-profile breaches, companies need to take data security compliance seriously.
