Data Extraction Prevention Best Practices
What’s in this whitepaper from NewtonX:
Despite U.S. state and international laws aimed at reducing the amount of consumer data companies can store, a new survey by research firm NewtonX finds that only 42% of organizations have formal strategies in place to deal with data scraping of private user information.
Here are a few highlights of the research, commissioned by Meta, the parent company of Facebook:
- 87% of respondents said preventing scraping of user data is important or very important relative to other security issues.
- 89% of respondents said their organizations have scraped user data.
- 70% of organizations have incident plans in place related to data scraping, but only 42% have strategies dedicated to handling or preventing data scraping.
