Given the inevitable digitization of ever increasing areas of lives by industries and governments, it is critical that people with technical expertise participate not only in the implementation of pragmatic standards and practices around data, privacy, and security, but in shaping meaningful policies.

Making Privacy and Data Security a Priority

Data breaches are a fairly common, recurring phenomenon.

Using Privacy Mode BPGs

At Zerodha, we collect logs and ingest them into our pretty-much standard out-of-the-box setup of ELK with some minor configuration for scaling up. Due to our regulatory obligations, we need to have specific retention policies for storing logs. These could include access logs as well as application logs which are usually ingested from various multiple instances of internal apps. We apply the mask… more

The Need for Privacy and Data Security

There’s been an exponential change in the way people interact with digital products over the last decade, perhaps more so in the last 5 years. A decade ago only the “tech-savvy” folk had a sizeable digital footprint. Today nearly everyone has one.

New Perspectives to Workflows

Regulators usually come out with regulations, the compliance/security teams go through the journey of understanding these requirements and mapping them to our context. It helps to connect with others from the industry who go through a similar journey & exchange notes, which is where the Privacy Mode community comes into the picture.

The current status quo with respect to data regulation is neither satisfactory nor equitable and permits a wide range of data abuse.
